More quotes by Albert Pujols
I believe it is my responsibility to do what I can for children and people with Down syndrome as well as in my native Dominican Republic.
Albert Pujols
I'm a really smart player. If you tell me something, I get it quickly. If there is something wrong with my hitting, tell me what's wrong and I'll pick it up right away. That's the best thing I have going for me, my ability to listen to a coach and fix what I'm doing wrong.
Albert Pujols
I don't think there's anything out there I can be afraid of.
Albert Pujols
I'm going to be prayerful about it. Whatever decision I make hopefully is the best decision I can make for my family and the fans and everybody.

There's three things that as a professional athlete you want. You want to get to the big leagues, and I accomplished that. Winning a World Series ring, I got that. And then getting to the Hall of Fame. That's everybody's dream. Every athlete, they want to be up there in the Hall of Fame, mentioned with the greatest players to ever play this game.
Albert Pujols
I don't know why people say I'm not supposed to be doing what I'm doing. I'm just trying to do my job. I'm blessed, and I'm glad that I'm blessed.
Albert Pujols
I learned to play (baseball) on the streets in the Dominican Republic when I was 8 yrs old.
Albert Pujols
When you get a walk-off homer, you get to do whatever you want. You need to be excited about it. You don't get too many of those, so you need to enjoy them when they come.
Albert Pujols
Baseball is simply my platform to elevate Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior.

I consider myself a line drive hitter with power. I just try to put my best swing on the ball every time.
