I think I was the best baseball player I ever saw.
Willie Mays

Yes, I had to learn how to live life outside, but I had so many people help me.
Willie Mays

I didn't say I was that smart, I said I went to class and I enjoyed what I was doing.
Willie Mays

I'm a very lucky guy. I had so many people help me over the years that I never had many problems. If I had a problem, I could sit down with someone and they would explain the problem to me, and the problem become like a baseball game.
Willie Mays

It's not hard. When I'm not hitting, I don't hit nobody. But when I'm hitting, I hit anybody.
Willie Mays

People talk about that catch and, I've said this many times, that I've made better catches than that many times in regular season. But of course in my time, you didn't have a lot of television during the regular season. A lot of people didn't see me do a lot of things.
Willie Mays

I would try and help everybody, because the game was so easy for me. It was just like walking in the park.
