More quotes by 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
In my heart and mind, I know I can hit anybody. I'm always relaxed. It's hard to explain. It's like playing with my kids. It feels natural.
Albert Pujols
It doesn't matter if I hit a home run. It doesn't matter if we win a game. It doesn't matter if I go four for four. Whatever happens at the end of the day, as long as I glorify His name, that's what it's all about.
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 never take things for granted. I always look to help out me teammates, to win and be better.
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 play to represent God, something bigger than baseball.
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
Hopefully, at the end of my career, I can look back and say, 'Wow, what a game it was in Game 3 in 2011'.
Albert Pujols
What motivates me more than money are God and my family.
Albert Pujols
I trust that I can hit a fastball, that I can hit any pitch they throw to me.
Albert Pujols
I thought about it a lot (losing the 2002 NLCS). It's something you have to go home and wrap it up because if you keep thinking about it, you're going to take that to Spring Training and you're not going to be able to concentrate on your work.
Albert Pujols
Every year it gets tougher and tougher. Mentally and physically. That's why you need to train and prepare.
Albert Pujols
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
If it weren't for Jesus, I would not be where I am today and my life would be without purpose. I've heard kids say they want to be just like me when they grow up. They should know I want to be just like Jesus.
Albert Pujols
Baseball is simply my platform to elevate Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior.
Albert Pujols
I try to spend as much time as possible with God and my family. That's more important than anything I'm doing in baseball.
Albert Pujols
I learned to play (baseball) on the streets in the Dominican Republic when I was 8 yrs old.
Albert Pujols
I consider myself a line drive hitter with power. I just try to put my best swing on the ball every time.
Albert Pujols
There is only one El Hombre and that is Stan Musial.
