List of Mike Schmidt quotes.

I could ask the Phillies to keep me on to add to my statistics, but my love for the game won't let me do that.

If you could equate the amount of time and effort put in mentally and physically into succeeding on the baseball field and measured it by the dirt on your uniform, mine would have been black.

Any time you think you have the game conquered, the game will turn around and punch you right in the nose.
