“I don't think a manager should be judged by whether he wins the pennant, but by whether he gets the most out of the twenty-five men he's been given.”

“What you have to remember is that baseball isn't a week or a month but a season - and a season is a long time.”

“It's hard to win a pennant, but it's harder to lose one.”

“Having Willie Stargell on your ball club is like having a diamond ring on your finger.”

“If you don't like the way the Atlanta Braves are playing then you don't like baseball.”

“You can have money piled to the ceiling but the size of your funeral is still going to depend on the weather.”

“There are three secrets to managing. The first secret is have patience. The second is be patient. And the third most important secret is patience.”
