I play to represent God, something bigger than baseball.

People ask me if I believe how quickly my career has taken off. I just tell them that Jesus Christ is my strength. God has blessed me and I will continue to do my best for him. That is more important than anything I could ever do in baseball.

What I lose today I can't make up tomorrow. I have to do it today.

I'm a teammate guy, so whatever I can do to help my team to win like I have the past two years, that's what I want to do. If it takes for me to play first base, third base, right field, I just want to win the game.

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.

I have five young children, and I take being a role model very seriously.

To me playing third base and left field and moving all over the place, it doesn't bother me because I still have to grab that bat and hit no matter where I play.
Albert Pujols
I don't want to be too stiff, because then my hands won't be as quick.
Albert Pujols
There is no time to fool around when you practice. Every drill must have a purpose. I try to never get away from thathabits are important
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
I hope by the time that I'm done in this game, I can have half the numbers Stan Musial had in his career.
Albert Pujols
If I need to help my team and play a different position for that game because somebody is hurt or they want to give a day off to somebody, I'll do it.
Albert Pujols
You know your talent. You know if you work hard, your hard work is going to pay off one day.
Albert Pujols
At the end of the day, when all is said and done playing this game ... it doesn't matter what you did in the field, it's what you do off the field and the lives that you touch off the field.
