ciao yogi

husband sadly announced that yogi berra died a few days ago, this is what he says: boyhood idol, baseball player for the ny yankees. something like 15 consecutive years on the major league all-star team, 10 championships as a player, 3 more as a manager, etc. etc. a man everyone liked. never pretentious, always gentle, but a fierce competitor: one of the great clutch hitters of all time. maybe also a legend and an icon for his very well-known sayings. some of these are useful:

It's like deja-vu all over again.

It ain't the heat; it's the humility.

Baseball is 90% mental - the other half is physical.

I never said most of the things I said... Take it with a grin of salt.

If you don't know where you're going, you might end up some place else.

He hits from both sides of the plate. He's amphibious.

You can observe a lot by watching.

The future ain't what it used to be.

Never answer an anonymous letter.

When you come to a fork in the road, take it.

I always thought that record would stand until it was broken.

If the world was perfect, it wouldn't be.


Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't go to yours.
