Text Quotes
Every player had a roommate for out-of-town games, so I had to slip into the bathroom early each morning and secretly take my insulin injection.

I’ve been a Cub all my life. I came up here when I was 20 years old and spent my whole career here in Chicago. I’ve always been an optimist; I believe you have to be in order to survive, to be honest with you - in health, with what I’ve been through. That’s the way I am (Ron Santo Quotes)
The last thing I want is to die and then be put into the Hall of Fame. It’s not because I won’t be there to enjoy it, exactly. It’s because I want to enjoy it with family and friends and fans. I want to see them enjoy it. (Ron Santo Quotes)
I believe very strongly - and I never brought this up as a player - but I put up, I feel, Hall of Fame numbers with diabetes. If I didn’t have diabetes - nobody realizes that, when I was diagnosed at 18, even the doctors didn’t know what to do about diabetes. (Ron Santo Quotes)
There are a lot of guys who are respected but not liked (Ron Santo Quotes)
The last thing I ever thought would ever happen to me was losing my legs (Ron Santo Quotes)
I want to be a homer. I’m getting paid for something that I love to do. I would do it for nothing (Ron Santo Quotes)
Everything changes, money rules. In my era, if you were successful, you were going to make money, but you never worried about it (Ron Santo Quotes)
