About this product

Product Information

Everyone knows Yogi Berra for his famous non sequiturs: "It ain't over 'til it's over." "It gets late early out here." "The future ain't what it used to be." They seem like throwaway lines, but over time they reveal deeper meanings--playful truths, like Zen koans. Yogi's not trying to be mystical, but his seemingly simple phrases reveal the depth and wisdom of his mind. In this book, Yogi takes his experiences as one of baseball's all-time heroes and turns them into funny, appealing, and moving essays on the game of life. His philosophy is plainspoken and down-to-earth, hones through more than 50 years of reflecting on the game of baseball: "Keep trying. Stay humble, Trust your instincts. Most importantly, "act." When you come to a fork in the road, take it." In his inimitable style, using apt examples from his personal trove of baseball stories, Yogi tells us what really matters in life; what it takes to win, how to learn from losses, how to remain true to yourself, and how to be happy even when life is throwing you nothing but knuckleballs.

Thanks for checking my store out. I used to own a nifty little indie record shop through the 90's, until the giant chains stores came through. I have been storing a lot of inventory ever since, but a ...

    An easy flowing read

    While this book is structured as an autobiography, it is essentially another collection of Yogi's malapropism, such as: "It's déjà vu all over again" and "Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded". But that is exactly why I bought it. Mr. Berra illustrates how his experience in the big leagues taught him important life lessons like "If you don't know where you're going, you might not get there”…. This isn’t Dr. Phil – its Yogi. Enjoy!
