“You ask me: 'Was he a fair player?' I say: 'No, I'm sorry, for me he was not a fair player.' I just think I respect him highly as a quality player. I did not like some things he did on the football pitch and I have the right to say that. It's not because you are older, suddenly, that you are a saint.”

“Herman didn't interfere with me. He gave me that authority. I managed the field. Whatever went on on the field, I did it. I did every... thing. Nowadays, the manager tells everybody what to do, the manager does everything. That's why you see this [pantomiming a catcher repeatedly glancing over at the dugout].

Usually it was an infielder, but Herman gave me the authority.”

Willie Mays (1931) Baseball player

As quoted in "Say Hey, He's the One Who Called the Shots"
