Quotable Quotes:
"Ballplayers, they're making more money than ever, but I don't think they're as happy. Not too many guys look like they're having a good time. It's a conundrum."
"When Steve [Carlton] and I die, we are going to be buried in the same cemetery, 60-feet 6-inches apart."
"If somebody told me back in 1980 that I would have a 32-year career, and that I'd be [elected into the Hall of Fame], I'd say no way. For three years, I couldn't even break into the Phillies broadcast booth. I was just hoping to make it, much less be mentioned as a Ford Frick winner. Believe me, when I started out, this award wasn't even close to being on the radar."
