When I was younger, I was always taught not to make excuses.

My office is at Yankee stadium. Yes, dreams do come true.

I think everyone is ticklish. You just gotta find the right spots.

I love it when people doubt me. It makes me work harder to prove them wrong.

I have the greatest job in the world. Only one person can have it. You have shortstops on other teams - I'm not knocking other teams - but there's only one shortstop on the Yankees.

Surround yourself with good people. People who are going to be honest with you and look out for your best interests.

There may be people who have more talent than you, but there's no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do - and I believe that.

This is why you play - to get an opportunity to play in the playoffs.

The last thing you want to do is finish playing or doing anything and wish you would have worked harder.

I'm not perfect; no one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. I think you try to learn from those mistakes.

You don't just accidentally show up in the World Series.

I used to hold a fiery wind and I tried to determine the direction where poetry would fly.

I feel like a fox in a henhouse full of Catholic girls.

Our union rests upon public opinion, and can never be cemented by the blood of its citizens shed in civil war.

Marriage is unbelievable, i couldn't be more in love.

I do not remember the most challenging one but I remember that many of the titles I have recorded have been quite challenging for me.

You shouldn't believe everything you hear you're young, not stupid.

O Allah do not give me in excess lest I may be disobedient.

Do you think I'd be stupid enough to go running with someone I was foolin' with?
