Everybody talks about wanting to change things and help and fix but ultimately all you can do is fix yourself. And that's a lot. Because if you can fix yourself it has a ripple effect.

I want to change things for the better just like everybody else.

A car to pick me up every day a chair with my name on it everybody being very polite... what can you do except sit back and watch it all try to take it all in?

Well you go to Holland and everybody's on a bike - nobody would think to have a car.

I remember my wife and I used to get on plane and see everybody else with their babies. They'd be putting strollers and car seats up above and we'd think: Oh please Lord don't make us go through that.

I think like everybody else in New Hampshire when I pull up to fill up my car and I pay $50 I get upset. And I'm wondering if these prices are legitimate.

In 1950 when the Giants signed me they gave me $15 000. I bought a 1950 Mercury. I couldn't drive but I had it in the parking lot there and everybody that could drive would drive the car. So it was like a community thing.

Everybody has a gun in their car in Detroit.

Sometimes I feel like I'm not only the engine but the caboose. I have to be in the front car and pull forward and at the same time run around behind and push everybody along with me.

I think women like Ferraris. A Ferrari is everybody's car.

I'm a big believer in everybody being themselves. If not doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself that's great. But if doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself then you should be able to do it. What I do outside the car adds to who I am and expresses a different side of me.

I've got CDs in my car listening all the time for that next song because everybody's looking.

Campaign behavior for wives: Always be on time. Do as little talking as humanly possible. Lean back in the parade car so everybody can see the president.

I would absolutely definitely never sell my wedding pictures to a magazine. I'd like it to be a special day not a photo shoot. And once you've done that your marriage becomes everybody else's business.

The most important decision I've made in business? The choices of people I have around me. When I first started I brought everybody with me my homies from the neighborhood criminals. I just said 'Come on everybody we made it.' Then I had to realize we didn't make it. I made it.

I know from my own experience and from other people in the business that when you come from a place where nobody knew who you were and then there is this sudden shift to where everybody now knows who you are there's an adjustment that you have to make.

If you say 'I'm going to cut this song because I know the teenagers are going to love it ' well then you're going to alienate everybody else. When I cut my record I'm just going to cut the things that I like and whoever likes it likes it. That's too much work to try to figure out the demographic. That's too much like a business.

How many times have you been out for a beer or dinner and people are coming up with business ideas? Everybody wants to think they've got that great business idea.

I'm in exactly the same position as everybody else who has a small business. I mean I get loads of money all from different sources. You give it to your accountant. They manage it.

Everybody's business is nobody's business and nobody's business is my business.

I think everybody has their own way of looking at their lives as some kind of pilgrimage. Some people will see their role as a pilgrim in terms of setting up a fine family or establishing a business inheritance. Everyone's got their own definition.

Like everybody in show business you think you're going to wake up one day and it's all going to be taken away from you. I think we all share an insecurity in that way everybody in show business - the ones I talk to anyway.

I feel fine I don't care who the director is. All you have to do is know what your doing - all of us - everybody in the business - that's all you ask anyone - you know your job I know mine let's go do it.

And I want to do it the right way like everybody else not just a famous figurehead that gets a job because he is a famous basketball player. I want to really learn the business.
