It's just a great honor to even be associated with the Hall of Fame and get in. If I eventually do make it, it will be a great honor, and I don't care if it's the first or second time because it's an honor for anyone to make the Hall of Fame.
I honor anybody who wants to be a man and do the work of becoming a man. I honor anyone who mindfully becomes a woman. That's cool. But, I really don't get how there's only two choices. There's no two of anything else in the entire universe; why should there only be two genders? I don't get it.
Ah wonder if anybody this side of the Atlantic has ever bought a baseball bat with playing baseball in mind.

I've got the public. I don't care about the critics. I did at one time. I don't any more. I did when I needed compliments. But if you get a lot of compliments, you don't need a critic to tell you, 'This should be done another way.'

No one wants to watch anybody play baseball in a movie. What is interesting is what baseball means or sports in general means to those people doing it.
It's a great honor to be associated with the Hall of Fame and now to be in it. It's awesome.
Give me the compliments. I love compliments. I was born modest, but it wore off.
It's sort of like baseball - the more you know about baseball, the more you get into a baseball game. NASCAR is the same way.
If you can't honor your contract, that's the type of company I don't really want to be associated with.
I'm a Libra. If someone compliments me, I'll say something nice to them. I like to give out compliments.
As material fortune is associated with the properties of the body, so honor belongs to those of the soul.
Most people don't know how to take compliments. That's the biggest problem in America - we're hesitant to give compliments and embarrassed at getting them.
