“The inability to envision a certain kind of person doing a certain kind of thing because you've never seen someone who looks like him do it before is not just a vice. It's a luxury.

Michael Lewis, Moneyball

“It is the nature of being the general manager of a baseball team that you have to remain on familiar terms with people you are continually trying to screw.”
