«Damn referees, I'll miss them less than anybody.»

«Having one child makes you a parent; having two you are a referee.»

«All you umpires, back to the bleachers. Referees, hit the showers. It?s my game. I pitch, I hit, I catch. I run the bases. At sunset, I?ve won or lost. At sunrise, I?m out again, giving it the old try.»
«Anyone who clings to the historically untrue -- and -- thoroughly immoral doctrine that violence never solves anything I would advise to conjure up the ghosts of Napoleon Bonaparte and the Duke of Wellington and let them debate it.

Breeds that forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and their freedoms.»
