THE INCOMPARABLE YOGI BERRA

THE INCOMPARABLE YOGI BERRA
(5/12/1925 - 9/22/2015):

I usually take a two-hour nap from one to four.

Never answer an anonymous letter.

I'm not going to buy my kids an encyclopedia. Let them walk to school like I did.

You can observe a lot by watching.

The future ain't what it used to be.

If you don't know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else.

Why buy good luggage? You only use it when you travel.

The towels were so thick there I could hardly close my suitcase.

When you come to a fork in the road, take it.

Nobody goes there anymore, it's too crowded.

It gets late early out here.

I think Little League is wonderful. It keeps the kids out of the house.

I don't know if they were male or female fans running naked across the field. They had bags over their heads.

Take it with a grin of salt.

It ain't the heat, it's the humility.

A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore.

We made too many wrong mistakes.

So I'm ugly. I never saw anyone hit with his face.

If the people don't want to come out to the ballpark, nobody's going to stop them.

Baseball is 90 percent mental. The other half is physical.

All pitchers are liars or crybabies.

We were overwhelming underdogs.

Bill Dickey is learning me his experience.

He hits from both sides of the plate. He's amphibious.

I always thought that record would stand until it was broken.

I can see how Sandy Koufax won 25 games. What I don't understand is how he lost five.

I want to thank everyone for making this night necessary.

I didn't really say everything I said.

You should always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't come to yours.
