Hall of Fame catcher Yogi Berra has died at the age of 90. Some of his more famous quote, some of which he actually said, are: “It ain’t over till it’s over.” “It’s deja vu all over again.” “I usually take a two hour nap from one to four.” “Never answer an anonymous letter.” “We made too many wrong mistakes.” “You can observe a lot by watching.” “The future ain’t what it used to be.” "If you don't know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else." “It gets late early out here.” “If the people don’t want to come out to the ballpark, nobody’s going to stop them.” "Baseball is 90% mental. The other half is physical." “Pair up in threes.” “Why buy good luggage, you only use it when you travel.” "Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded."

He was so well-known for his personality and sayings that people tend to forget what an incredible catcher the guy was. I'm no Yankee lover, but he was tough to not like.
Rest well, sir.

Didn't he also have a quote about a pick-a-nick basket?
Sorry

Not only a great player: 3 time MVP, 10 time World Series champion, managed both the Yankees and the Mets to the World Series, but he was also found himself at Normandy during D-Day. Berra served in the Navy. He was a true icon and a great person as well. RIP, Yogi.
