Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.
It’s hard to beat a person who never gives up.
I’ll promise to go easier on drinking and to get to bed earlier, but not for you, fifty thousand dollars, or two-hundred and fifty thousand dollars will I give up women. They’re too much fun.

Every strike brings me closer to the next home run.
Yesterday’s home runs don’t win today’s games.
