I had the perfect job for a gamer. From February to October, I'd get up at 7 in the morning with nothing to do but play games until I had to be at the park around 1 or 2 o'clock. When I got back after the game, I played until 3 or 4 in the morning.
-
I've got a wife, four kids, a business, and a baseball career.
-
The Internet has kind of allowed me to go to a virtual library whenever I want to find out something about something and not use one source but find multiple ways to research certain topics or subjects.
-
I don't have any problem with government helping entrepreneurs and businesses.
-
I've made mistakes, I've misspoke, I am sure I will again sometime, but that happens, that's part of being human in my book. I'm OK with that. I've never done it maliciously, ever.
-
I always believed God gave us the tools to take care of ourselves.
-
When you're having a bad day at work, a lot of times it's your head. When you're having good days, a lot of times it's the absence of the mind.
-
The money I saved during baseball was probably all gone. I'm tapped out.
-
'Reckoning' will be the first game of its kind. They've taken that 'God of War'-style combat and placed it in a truly open world with hundreds of hours of gameplay. You can do whatever it is you want to do. What path you take, what role you choose, what trail you blaze - there's meaning and depth and substance in the world.
-
I loved fantasy role play.
-
I was a very weird amalgam of things as a kid.
-
As much as I'd like to think I'm a really good designer, I'm average.
-
I care what people think, but that doesn't change what I say. I am who I am.
-
I'm a good person. I don't wish hateful things on people. I don't hate anybody. I know that I treat people right.
-
Baseball is not a sport you can achieve individually.
-
When you say you are a gamer and you are a celebrity or a former celebrity there's a grain of salt that everybody takes that with.
-
In my mind, I never doubted whether I was going to achieve what I wanted to do. I just had to decide what it is I wanted to do.
-
I came back after my surgery, throwing four to six miles harder than I did before.
-
I don't pitch for contracts.
-
Before I pitch any game, from spring training to Game 7 of the World Series, I'm scared to death.
-
The things I was allowed to experience, the people I was able to call friends, teammates, mentors, coaches and opponents, the travel, all of it, are far more than anything I ever thought possible in my lifetime.
-
I've been able to do what I love and what I'm passionate about my entire life. I made, you know, an insane amount of money playing baseball.
-
I wanted to create a multibillion dollar company that lets me go out and let us go out and change the world and create a Skin Cancer Awareness Center that costs a quarter a billion dollars.
-
I used to visit kids with cancer all the time. Now I'm in the club. I understand what's happening to these little kids with brain cancer, and I ask myself, 'How do they make it through the day?' So you see a little 5-year-old and you say, 'If she can do it, I can suck it up.'
