To fulfill a dream to be allowed to sweat over lonely labor to be given a chance to create is the meat and potatoes of life. The money is the gravy.
I went back to work because someone had to pay for the groceries.
People look at me and they go 'You're white you're smart you must have...
And when I retired trust me not only did Nolan Ryan but the entire Ryan family had withdrawals from baseball. And it was tough.
