My father knows me better than anyone. He can tell me over the phone what I'm doing wrong.

I'm very proud of my area around the plate. I don't want anyone messing with my dirt.

I could never wear another uniform. I will forever be a Yankee.

I think you learn. You learn from your mistakes. You learn from things you do and try to stay away from the negatives in your life. I think I've grown.

You gotta take care of yourself; you cant do anything in excess.

The only thing that matters is when the team wins.

If I see a problem (in the clubhouse), I say something right away. I don't wait two or three days.

When you're aggressive behind the plate, calling a game, that's when you're at your best. You can't be tentative.

You can always look back on having a good defensive day, even if you didn't do anything offensively. You won the game and you contributed.

I try to go out and do the same thing every night. I've been taught since I was a kid that the only thing that matters is winning.

I'm always happy. I like to have fun. During the game, I don't like showing my emotions, though. I'm all about winning the game. I take a lot of responsibility for that.

You are never too old to become younger!

Computers are heaven-sent when they work and hell-spawn when they don't.There's just not much middle ground when it comes to technology.

We just have to believe that God is bigger than the junk happening to us.

Here's to the future, he said and lifted the glass to his mouth. There was a lump of regret stuck in his throat as he spoke the words, but he washed it down with the whiskey.

Courage! I have shown it for years think you I shall lose it at the moment when my sufferings are to end?

I'm nothing you can catch now. I am black powder, I am singe, I am the bomb that bursts the night.

The thing to be wished for, is not that the mountains should become easier, but that men should become wiser and stronger.

Theosophy blesses the world; Theology is its curse.

Things that I'm afraid to do are always about being afraid of being exposed. Every time, that's what it's always about.

This is the first day of the rest of my life. So why is my hair sticking up like a cockerel?
