 Clemente, the Passion and Grace of Baseball's Last Hero . |
| As soon as this tragedy happened in New Orleans, I just was haunted by memories and thoughts about Roberto Clemente and sort of how he gave his life to help people in a situation like this. It was very heartening for me to see athletes of this era come through in ways larger than themselves. |
| Every athlete can't be like that, |
| He had his flaws, but he also had important characteristics. |
| He told me, 'I want you to be good to my boys,' ... And I said, 'I'm going to find the truth and write the truth.' He almost got up and left. |
| I think he's emblematic of a certain type. He wasn't against the war, just didn't want anything to do with it. He wanted to get on with his life and not let the world get in the way. |
| It's sort of a gamble, |
| People evoke his name today and ask what would Lombardi have done with Terrell Owens. |
| Sometimes heroes are born, and sometimes heroes are made. People get to show what they're made of in critical situations. You saw people demonstrate their values in this tragedy. |
| That's the moment that made him a saint in Latin America. Everything he did and said before and after that is crystallized in that moment, the point where he's finally got the world stage. |
| The Prince of Tennessee |
| To that extent, he will live on, at least for baby boomers and maybe longer. He's part of the culture now. |
| War doesn't go away when the bullets stop. Vietnam still is as relevant today as it was then. |
| [Regardless of the viewpoints, or the documentary,] this book is always with me, ... It has the most lasting psychological and political resonance. |
