Quotes
"They're
like sleeping in a soft bed. Easy to get into and hard
to get out of." - Johnny Bench on hitting slumps
"I
never want to quit playing ball. They’ll have to
cut this uniform off of me to get me out of it."-
Roy Campanella
"To
be good you've gotta have a lot of little boy in you.
When you see Willie Mays and Ted Williams jumping and
hopping around the bases after hitting a home run, and
the kissing and hugging that goes on at home plate,
you realize they have to be little boys."
- Roy Campanella
