Zitat des Tages von Alex Rodriguez:
I'm never happy with my performance.
I've always said I'm a teacher at heart.
This is how I define grace: you're on the main stage, and it looks like it has been rehearsed 100 times, everything goes so smoothly. That's where I get my confidence and success, from knowing that I have an edge because I know I'm prepared.
I'm very thankful to the Yankees and to Major League Baseball for allowing me to play this game.
I don't like talking about my relationships.
It's tougher when you're established. Before, I'd see 13, 14, 15 pitches that I could drive in a game. Now, I see one, two or three, so I have to be better.
Like everyone else, I've made a lot of mistakes in my life. The only way I know how to handle them is to learn from them and move forward.
I had a very complex childhood, and when I met my wife, because she has a master's in psychology, she promoted me into getting help. It really has helped. I'm not healed yet, but I'm working on some issues I had as a child.
Enjoy your sweat because hard work doesn't guarantee success, but without it you don't have a chance.
When I grew up, baseball was the No. 1 sport.
I had a great year and left my guts out on the field.
I take full responsibility for the mistakes that led to my suspension for the 2014 season.
I'm a terrible singer. I feel lucky to play baseball. You can't be gifted in everything.
I like Jay Z, Journey, and Kings of Leon.
There are a lot of people who don't like me.
My daughters think I am a terrible cook, but I try really hard. I would really like to be a better cook.
Winners live in the present tense. People who come up short are consumed with future or past. I want to be living in the now.
I just don't see the light. Where is the light? What am I in this for?
I've always enjoyed challenges.
In baseball 30 days is an eternity.
My girls are great at making fun of Dad. They're never impressed with anything I do. I love that. I hope that never changes.
The births of my two daughters were the two greatest moments of my life.
Having the respect of your peers means the world to me.
There's absolutely no comparisons to me or anyone else to Willie Mays. Willie Mays, he's the greatest baseball player of all time.
I love the challenge of the game. I love the work. My goal right now is to have a season next year that will make people forget about this one. I'll use things like this for motivation. I'm pumped. I'm hungry.
I just hope that as I get older, I calm down and enjoy the moment, enjoy the great gifts that God has given me.
My style is not to challenge anything.
