If you do a job, do it right or there is no point.

What keeps me going? I guess it's just a desire to keep trying to contribute and do things in life.

The best thing you can do in the whole world is to play baseball. That's a lucky job... The passion for baseball is always going to be there.

I am driven by what you are able to accomplish and how you are able to help some people. I go about it each and every day, sometimes I think I say yes too much and I am too busy in my life.

I take pride in the fact that you are able to make some good contributions to the sport at certain times.

I've felt some great feelings on the baseball field... in front of 50,000 people and millions on TV... but the feeling you get when you give a kid a chance, that is a hundred times greater than that feeling.

There is a feeling when you are in Yankee Stadium that it is a very sacred ground you are walking on and you know you had the same feelings that other great players have had in other eras that played right there on that field.
