What Time Is It? You Mean Now? :
Advice for Life from the Zennest
Master of Them All by Yogi Berra
Special Read
Could Confucius hit a curveball?
Could Yoda block the plate?
Can the Dalai Lama dig one out of the dirt? No, there is only one Zen
master who could contemplate the circle of life while rounding the bases.
Who is this guru lurking in the grand old game? Well, hes the winner of ten
World Series rings, a member of both the Hall of Fame and the All-Century
Team, and perhaps the most popular and beloved ballplayer of all time.
And without effort or artifice hes waxed poetic on the mysteries of time (It
gets late awful early out there), the meaning of community (Its so crowded
nobody goes there anymore), and even the omnipresence of hope in the
direst circumstances (It aint over til its over). Its Yogi Berra, of course, and
in What Time Is It? You Mean Now? Yogi expounds on the funny, warm,
borderline inadvertent insights that are his trademark. Twenty-six chapters,
one for each letter, examine the words, the meaning, and the uplifting
example of a kid from St. Louis who grew up to become the consummate
Yankee and the ultimate Yogi.
Personal Review: What Time Is It? You Mean Now? : Advice for
Life from the Zennest Master of Them All by Yogi Berra
This little book is a great read and full of down to earth ideas that will be
usefulto the readers in their everyday lives.We have all heard of the one-
liners attributed to Yogi.Even if you are still up in the air whether he
actually said all these things;you'll really see the thoughts behind these
statements.
It's hard to believe that there was ever any other Baseball player who had
more love for the game,and that was from the days when he and Joe
Garagolia played pick-up ball as kids in St.Louis,all the way through the
major leagues,and now in his retirement years.Not only that,you'll see from
this book that nobody appreciated more the privilege he had to make a
wonderful life and living "playing a kids game".
Yogi tells us the things that helped him through life and he explains the
principles as well as any professionally trained person could do.
Most of all,he doesn't preach. he just tells us what has worked for him
and should work for anyone ,through his years of observing life.In his own
words,he sums it all up with:
"You can observe a lot by watching."

the years;and also for putting your thoughts in this terrific little book.
