RIP.

"It ain't over till it's over."

"It's déjà vu all over again."

"When you come to a fork in the road ... take it."

"I usually take a two-hour nap from 1 to 4."

"Never answer an anonymous letter."

"I didn't really say everything I said."

"I want to thank you for making this day necessary."

"We made too many wrong mistakes."

"You can observe a lot by watching."

"The future ain't what it used to be."

"It gets late early out here."

"If the world were perfect, it wouldn't be."

"If the people don't want to come out to the ballpark, nobody's going to stop them."

"Pair up in threes."

"Why buy good luggage? You only use it when you travel."

Retweeted Johnny Bench (@Johnny_Bench5):
@MLB @BaseballHall @Yankees Yogi sent me a telegram when I hit a HR to pass him, "I knew my record would stand until it was broken".

After his wife passed away, I made sure I made it to Yankee Stadium for the next Old Timers day. Seeing Yogi live in person is one of the greatest days of my life - and my mom and wife were along to share it with me. A true legend and amazing person

I just used Deja vu all over again the other day... I had no idea that came from him.

RIP

That's INSANE. :w00t:

Those Yankee teams during his era were insanely good with Whitey Ford, Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris and Berra. Hell the Kansas City Athletics acted as their farm team.

One of the best players ever, and certainly the greatest character baseball ever produced.

RIP Yogi.

RIP Yogi.

Casey Stengel, the Yankees manager during that era was a great character as well.

This is a really well-written obit. Reminds me of the obits the Economist does. Worth reading.
