I have always love the fork in the road quote.

So many cannot dicide and either stand there or go back.

Make a move,a decision something and if you were wrong than so be it.

Better to do something, anything than never have had to at all

Enjoy the day

Toula, for me the season can end today, we're in first place the Yankees are in last, and it was a traditional slugfest. Only 163 more to go.

Toula,

Nice quotes. And here is one from Cal Ripkin, Jr. - who happened to grow up in Harford County -just down the road from me.

"When you go into a setting like Camden Yards or Fenway Park and you walk out on the field for the first time, there's a sense of unbelievable awe, a feeling that only a very small percentage of people ever get to feel. You want to be able to share that, to bring that feeling, that dream, into focus."

You have to love Yogi quotes!  I saw an interview with him once where he said he did not say all the things he is quoted as saying, but then the interviewer went through a list and his response: "yup, I did say that one" over and over!

Hi Toula - Yogi's quotes are always some of my favorites.  They always have kind of a twisted logic, so you can understand what he was trying to say.

I think that they are all good quotes however, I think the one by Willie Mays nailed it.  Thank you for a good start to my week.

Toula I predicted last year the Saints would win the Super Bowl.  Do you think the Cubs have a chance?

Toula,

Love the Yogi quotes. I met him a couple of times. My Dad used to work for YooHoo when Yogi was their spokesman.
