As I read the story in this morning's paper about the latest disagreement between Mayor Alan Autry and the Fresno City Council, I realized how eminently quotable 
baseball legend Yogi Berra is.
The article wrapped up with Autry repeating one of Berra's famous quotes: "It ain't over 'til it's over."
That made me curious, so I did a search on the Internet to look up some of Berra's other clever remarks. Here are a few good ones.
From the Web site Quotes from Yogi:
"Yeah, only in America can a thing like this happen." (Yogi's comment on a Jewish mayor being elected in Dublin, Ireland.)
"You don't look so hot yourself." (Yogi's reply to then New York mayor John Lindsay's wife, Mary, after she had told Yogi that he looked nice and cool.)
From Funny2com's Yogi Berra quotes page:
"If you ask me a question I don't know, I'm not going to answer."
"It ain't the heat; it's the humility."
Of course, as is the case with many famous "quotes" ("Play it again, Sam."), much of what was attributed to Berra he never actually said. Berra himself said, "I really didn't say everything I said."
Yogi is great. Here are a couple of other notable quotes attributed to him.
Getting ready to play an early evening game on the road he told a teammate "It gets late early here."
Yogi and a teammate were going to get some pizza to go. They were getting two pizzas so they could each have one to themselves. When Yogi was asked if he wanted his sliced into 6 or 8 pieces. He replied, " you better make it six, I don't think I can eat 8."
