Derek Jeter
I will never brag about myself, but my family, I can go on forever.
Derek Jeter
The only legacy I want is to be thought of as a winner.
Derek Jeter
You gotta have fun. Regardless of how you look at it, we're playing a game. It's a business, it's our job, but I don't think you can do well unless you're having fun.
Derek Jeter
You know what I want to do? Wake up one weekend and not have to go anywhere and do nothing.
Derek Jeter
I like to dance and sing when there's no one around, but, if I'm out, I'm really shy about it. So it takes a lot to get me going, but I enjoy being around music.
Derek Jeter
Work hard, love what you do, put your best foot forward and never forget the kid in you.

The draft is a crapshoot, so I've been very fortunate to be drafted by the Yankees, and to have spent my whole career here.
Derek Jeter
It's never over. You don't want to be in the position to be down four runs in the ninth inning, but it's not over until the last out.
Derek Jeter
I have the greatest job in the world. Only one person can have it. You have shortstops on other teams - I'm not knocking other teams - but there's only one shortstop on the Yankees.
Derek Jeter
In order to lead people, you have to get to know them.
Derek Jeter
It doesn't take talent to work hard.
Derek Jeter
Nine games? It's too long.
Derek Jeter
During the offseason, I go to the movies almost every day. You hear about women buying shoes? I buy DVDs. I definitely have a problem.
Derek Jeter
The guy's (Shane Spencer) ridiculous. No one hits home runs like that. I'm telling you, man, it's ridiculous.
Derek Jeter
A lot of teams, I think, are just happy to make the post-season. Here, you have to win.
Derek Jeter
Handle yourself like a professional on the field and you have one goal-and that's to win.
Derek Jeter
