“Everybody in the world is going to know I played 20 years for the Atla...” — John Smoltz Quote

“Everybody in the world is going to know I played 20 years for the Atlanta Braves, but that doesn't change my broadcast.”

“I've learned so much through golf and myself. I've been frustrated a lot, but I've proved a lot, too.”

“My first victory, I didn't think it could get much better with the excitement of family and friends who were there in Shea Stadium.”

“It is a lot to learn, and unique, but it is commonplace here in Atlanta where the man takes care of things and the woman becomes a homemaker, and later on in the relationship, a mother, which isn't the things that I ever considered. I think Cody thought that I would want that for my life since he grew up in that, but that is just not me.”

“What got me motivated was my dad's idea that I go to Morehouse College in Atlanta. It's an all-black, all-male school. Martin Luther King went there. The most famous person in my class was Spike Lee. And I really caught fire. I was so inspired by the people around me that I went from C's and D's to straight A's by the time I left.”
