This thread may go nowhere, but it could be fun. What are your favorite Berra-isms, malapropisms or otherwise ludicrous quotes.
Here are three:
You could have knocked me over with a fender. (Not sure who said this.)
We've all passed a lot of water under the bridge. (I made this one up myself, I think)
Rich Folkers is throwing up in the bullpen. (attributed to former Padres broadcaster Jerry Coleman.)
Anyone like to share?

Any one who thinks “a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush” hasn’t been putting his bird in the right bush.

"When you come to a fork in the road - take it."
He used that particular Yogi-ism as the title for his book (which is great BTW).

Actually, it was Stokely Carmichael who, reportedly, said "Don't fire until you see the Whites".
