Yogi Berra-isms

Posted on September 7, 2019August 28, 2019 by Pam R

Lawrence Peter “Yogi” Berra (May 12, 1925 – September 22, 2015) was an American professional baseball catcher, manager and coach. He was known for his malapropisms as well as pithy and paradoxical statements, such as “It ain’t over ’til it’s over” (Said in July 1973, when Berra’s Mets trailed the Chicago Cubs by 9½ games in the National League East). He once simultaneously denied and confirmed his reputation by stating, “I really didn’t say everything I said.”

If you don’t know where you are going, you will end up somewhere else.

When you come to a fork in the road, take it.

If the world were perfect, it wouldn’t be.

“It ain’t the heat, it’s the humility.” 

“You can observe a lot by just watching.”

“I’m not going to buy my kids an encyclopedia. Let them walk to school like I did.”

“We made too many wrong mistakes.”

Take it with a grin of salt.

It’s tough to make predictions, especially about the future.

If you don’t set goals, you’ll never reach them. Or like they say in golf, if you aim for nothing, you’ll hit it every time.
