Big Texas (Nolan Ryan) is here. The reason I like to keep Nolan around is he is a reminder that when we got done with the Sammy Sosa trade, there was still some talent on the Rangers.

George W. Bush

And when I retired, trust me, not only did Nolan Ryan, but the entire Ryan family had withdrawals from baseball. And it was tough.

Nolan Ryan

I never faced a pitcher with better stuff than Nolan Ryan.

Robin Yount

Everybody is so sensitive, you'd think Nolan Ryan was pitching.

Thurman Munson

What man in his 40s would not like to look in the mirror and find Nolan Ryan?

Nolan Ryan

Nolan Ryan is pitching much better now that he has his curve ball straightened out.

Joe Garagiola

I guess I'm the only guy old enough to figure him (Nolan Ryan, 1-Hitter Game in 1991) out.

Dave Winfield

Major league hitters have more power. But Japanese hitters are very good at making contact. I don't like either.

Yu Darvish

Nolan Ryan helped me with baseball, and my dad passing away gave me a bigger heart.

Randy Johnson

You don't face Nolan Ryan without your rest. He's the only guy I go against that makes me go to bed before midnight.

Reggie Jackson

Women are "hypergamous." This means they seek men of higher status than themselves. Even the most ardent heterosexual feminist only can love someone more powerful than she. Needless to say the higher she rises, the slimmer the pickings.

Henry Makow

It gave me no chance. He (Nolan Ryan) just blew it (strikeout #5,000) by me. But its an honor. I'll have another paragraph in all the baseball books. I'm already in the books three or four times.

Rickey Henderson

Every hitter likes fastballs, just like everybody likes ice cream. But you don't like it when someone's stuffing it into you by the gallon. That's what it feels like when Nolan Ryan's thrown balls by you.

Reggie Jackson

I like my friends to be the hitters. The pitchers, they all have the same brain as I do. The hitters see the game from a different perspective.

Joe Mays

You can display no greater wisdom than by resisting proposals for needless legislation. It is much more important to kill bad bills than to pass good ones.
