Hank Aaron on his home run record

I don't want people to forget Babe Ruth.  I just want them to remember Henry Aaron. 

~ Hank Aaron

I'm hoping someday that some kid, black or white, will hit more home runs than myself.  Whoever it is, I'd be pulling for him.

Henry Aaron on getting the Moderna vaccine

I don’t have any qualms about it at all, you know.  I feel quite proud of myself for doing something like this...  It’s just a small thing that can help zillions of people in this country.
