You have an obligation to yourself and your family to haul ass and get out of here, and I'm telling you to get out now,

The two months that I'm in Spring Training is tough. The family obligation weighed heavily. We spent a lot of time talking about that. The truth of the matter is during spring, I'm at the ballpark the majority of days for 12, 15 hours. I wouldn't get a whole lot of time with them.

Your first obligation, I suppose, is to your God. Your second is to your family. And your third is to your community. And you ought to try to fulfill all of those in your life.

Some families are an odd melting pot of strangers with the occasional offering of obligation.

Teaching civility is an obligation of the family.

The only obligation which I have a right to assume is to do at any time what I think right
