Zitat des Tages von Bryce Harper:
I love being around my family.
I want my teammates to know I have their backs.
Baseball needs more superstars.
I love the way people talk crap. I hear it all the time. 'Overrated.' 'You suck.' I'll just do something to shut them up, like, 'I'll show you.'
I want to play the game hard. I want to ram it down your throat, put you into left field when I'm going into second base.
I want to get my eight hours and be able to eat good meals and not be sluggish or anything like that. My body is my temple, and I've always thought that.
My dad, he worked rebar, an ironworker. Watching my pops get up every single morning, going into work, working hard - I think that really made me want to work that hard, wanted to make me get up early and go for a run or get a lift in or get some extra hitting in and really try to better myself every day.
Baseball players have such a bad rap of, like, 'We don't work out or we're not strong or this or that.' Guys work so hard in baseball, it's incredible. But people don't know that.
Staying healthy puts good numbers up. If you stay healthy and try to do the things that you can to win ballgames and do what you can for your team, that's all that matters.
I don't wish that I was playing football. I love baseball, and the way I play is like it's my last day ever playing it. I do like football, but you've got to respect that it's not like baseball.
D.C. fans, I think, are so good. They just come up to me, and they're so nice and so polite and just, 'Hey, I hope you have a great career,' and 'How are you doing, everything's good?' That's pretty much where they leave it at.
When I hit the ball, I do want to hurt it.
I was probably 12 or 13 when I started doing pushups, situps, dips.
Seriously, it takes me, like, 30 minutes to do my hair before a game.
I don't want everybody to just see the baseball side of me.
I love to train. Always have.
If you don't have dreams, you don't have a life.
I'm not trying to fit in with nobody. I'm just me.
It's funny to me because everyone says I'm injury prone. That's hilarious to me because I've never blown a hammy or a shoulder or anything like that, knock on wood.
I wish my abs were a little bit better. God gave me a great body, but I think my abs could be better than they are.
I'd rather be a good person off the field than a good baseball player on the field.
I can't just go to McDonald's after I'm done working out. I'm going to treat my body like it's the only body I'm ever going to have. I'm going to make sure it's strong and it's good. I'm really going to work hard every single day.
