Leadership is a role you have to earn in order to be effective.
Alex Rodriguez
There's no place like New York. And I found out that until you go through it for a season, you really don't know it.
Alex Rodriguez
Looks aren't the number one thing. They have to have class, intelligence, then looks. If I was the ugliest SOB in the world it would be a lot easier.

Michael Jordan told me the way he kept the crown was by always outworking everyone else because he knew everyone was always coming after him. You can sneak up on people when you are 18, 19, 20. It's tougher when you're established. Before, I'd see 13, 14, 15 pitches that I could drive in a game. Now, I see one, two or three, so I have to be better.

It's a weird situation for us. It's just like we're looking in the mirror. the only difference is I'm on the West Coast and he's on the East Coast.

Alex Rodriguez
Playing the game was the easy part. The real work was in the preparation.
Alex Rodriguez
Keep reading books, stay in school. I encourage kids to read as much as they can, I challenge you to read a book every two weeks, like I try to.
Alex Rodriguez
We (Derek Jeter and I) want to kill each other. I think we both drive each other and motivate each other. But, when we're off the field, we're like family. I think the nice thing about it is we became good friends before we even mad it to the big leagues. That makes it more of a healthy relationship.
Alex Rodriguez
If my life depended on it - if my daughter's life depended on it - I'd want Mariano Rivera closing. Wouldn't you?
Alex Rodriguez
I hate the word 'potential'-potential means you haven't gotten it done.
Alex Rodriguez
My mother's the most special person in my life ... I consider her my MVP: Most Valuable Parent.
Alex Rodriguez
I don't care if people like me or not. Respect is more important.
