George Steinbrenner Quotes
George Steinbrenner Quotes
He told me to get home and get busy. I wish I could have stayed in coaching. My father never asked that much, but when he did it was an order.
Owning the Yankees is like owning the Mona Lisa.
My father wasn’t a believer in ‘monetary allowances’ for my sisters and me, so he set us up raising chickens.
We sold the eggs to our neighbours…If one of our neighbours wanted a fresh chicken, then we also had to kill and dress the chicken.
That chicken would run around with no head. Suddenly he’d flop down and you had to pick up the feathers.
Every night we had to update the books on everything we sold, and the earnings were equally split three ways.
My best and worst boss was the same man – my father. He never – and I mean never – took ‘I can’t’ for an answer. He taught me the value system that, to this day, I have continued to practice.
I take my last phone call at home at about 11pm.
There is not enough [time] to accomplish everything you’d like to get done.
I sold my egg company to my sisters for three times what it was worth. They’ve never liked me since.
I detest bankruptcy. To me, it signifies failure – personal failure, corporate failure.
Winning was everything. I don’t care what they tell you.
It's an incredible achievement, particularly when I remember that when I bought the Yankees, we had trouble drawing 1 million to the stadium. We have the greatest fans in the world.
As I've always said, the way New Yorkers back us we have to produce for them.
I haven’t always done a good job, and I haven’t always been successful, but I know that I have tried.
Winning is the most important thing in my life, after breathing. Breathing first, winning next.
I will never have a heart attack. I give them.
Our team played hard, but we let our fans down. We will do better.
We plan absentee ownership as far as running the Yankees is concerned. We’re not going to pretend we’re something we aren’t. I’ll stick to building ships.
