Famous quotes by Nolan Ryan:

"I think Roger is one of the fiercest competitors I've seen, ... It reflects in the way he approaches his job and the way he carries himself on the mound. When he goes out there, his teammates know he's going to do everything in his power to help them win a ballgame."

"I can't think of anything more humiliating than losing a ballgame to a guy who steals home on you. It happened to me one time against Kansas City. I had a 2-2 count on the hitter - and Amos Otis broke from third. The pitch was a ball and slid in safe. I felt like a nickel."

"What man in his 40s would not like to look in the mirror and find Nolan Ryan?"

"We do it both as a business and out of love of the game of baseball,"

"It helps if the hitter thinks you're a little crazy."

"Everyone has limits. You just have to learn what your own limits are and deal with them accordingly."

"My job is to give my team a chance to win."

"One of the beautiful things about baseball is that every once in a while you come into a situation where you want to, and where you have to, reach down and prove something."

"My ability to throw a baseball was a gift. It was a God-given gift. And I am truly appreciative of that gift. It took me a while to figure that out... and when I finally did, I dedicated myself to be the best pitcher I possibly could be, for as long as I possibly could be."

"Enjoying success requires the ability to adapt. Only by being open to change will you have a true opportunity to get the most from your talent."

"I can honestly say it took two full years for me to get over the fact that I was no longer a baseball player."

"I feel very fortunate that I played for the four organizations I did."

"I like to refer to my years with the Angels as the foundation of my career."

"And then when I went to stay in '68, I can honestly say that I was not focused on my career and on what it took to be a major league pitcher and to be a starting pitcher."

"And when I retired, trust me, not only did Nolan Ryan, but the entire Ryan family had withdrawals from baseball. And it was tough."

"I came into the game when I broke into the major leagues, the minimum salary was seven thousand dollars, and I'd have to go home in the wintertime and get a job."

"And to play as long as I did and to have a family you have to be very blessed and I was with my wife Ruth. Ruth, I appreciate the job you did, and my three fine children, Reid, Reese, and Wendy."

"For my children, they spent 15 to 20 years of their life in baseball. And Ruth and I spent so many years of our married life that that was our life. We knew nothing else."

"And I'm a believer that you take a negative and turn it into a positive, and as it turned out, it was one of the best things that ever happened to me. And so I do appreciate the Ranger staff and the Ranger organization for giving me that opportunity."
