My coaches sometimes say I'm a little bit too competitive. But I want to win, and I feel like we should win every game.

I want to be in Philly for the rest of my life.

Trust 'The Process.'

The Process is never going to end. It's an ongoing thing. I don't think it's ever going to stop. As I have explained before, it's a process for making it to the playoffs, it's another one to make the conference finals, another one to actually go to The Finals and win the championship.

When you take a job, you don't just accept the pats on the back. You have to accept the kicks in the pants.

Chicago is a pretty good town.

I won't be managing the Mets. I am closing the door on managing the Mets and probably everybody else.

If I intimidate people, that's not my intention.

I'm not very complicated.

Umpires sometimes have a quick trigger.

You hear the word 'cancer,' it scares you. You think of death.

If you do the best you can, you never have to look back.

I've been very, very fortunate. I never had to work for a living.

To wind up in Cooperstown is surreal for me. To go into the Hall of Fame is one thing. When you think of all the other Yankees that are in here, it's pretty special. This is just a shrine. To visit it, much less be inducted, it's still sort of unbelievable to me.

I never concerned myself with other people's decisions.

I don't have a great deal of stress job-wise in my life, and that feels good.

Whatever sport you're looking at, it's usually the team that makes the least mistakes that has the most success.

I've enjoyed my time in the American League, the fans of Southern California and other friendships.

Scott Boras, I've known for a long time. We were both in the Cardinals organization. I'm a lot older than Scott. He's a very tough man, very tough agent.

TV is not accurate.

I'm a very private person, and I don't want to share stuff with anyone.

We all have different ways to do things.

Getting fired is what happens to a manager sooner or later.

When you've been in the game as long as I have, you know the managers you've played for, the good ones and the bad ones. Even the good ones get fired.
