More quotes by Derek Jeter
My heroes, my dreams, and my future lay in Yankee Stadium. And they can't take that away from me.
Derek Jeter
Yankee Stadium is my favorite stadium I'm not going to lie to you. There's a certain feel you get in Yankee Stadium.
Derek Jeter
I'm not one to sit around and be satisfied about something. I can always get better.
Derek Jeter
When you put a lot of hard work into one goal and you achieve it, that's a really good feeling.
Derek Jeter
You know what I want to do? Wake up one weekend and not have to go anywhere and do nothing.
Derek Jeter
You don't just accidentally show up in the World Series.
Derek Jeter
I love it when people doubt me. It makes me work harder to prove them wrong.
Derek Jeter
I'm not perfect no one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes. I think you try to learn from those mistakes.
Derek Jeter
It doesn't feel different being here (at the All-Star Game) I feel like I'm on an All-Star team everyday.
Derek Jeter
I never think about my own stats, as long as I'm contributing to the team.
Derek Jeter
There may be people who have more talent than you, but there's no excuse for anyone to work harder than you do - and I believe that.
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 think there's something wrong with me - I like to win in everything I do, regardless of what it is. You want to race down the street, I want to beat you. If we're playing checkers, I want to win. You beat me, it's going to bother me. I just enjoy competition.
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
For me, when I was a kid, volunteering was the last thing I was thinking about. When I see kids doing it now, it amazes me. It's very impressive, it gives them something productive to do as opposed to getting in trouble. For them to take time out at such a young age is remarkable. I think all kids should take a little time out to volunteer.
Derek Jeter
Work hard, love what you do, put your best foot forward and never forget the kid in you.
Derek Jeter
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
During the off-season, I go to the movies almost every day.
Derek Jeter
It took him 75 steps to get from third to home. I thought we were going to have to go out there and help him. A lot of players start thinking double then maybe wind up with a triple because the outfielder slips.
Derek Jeter
When it was time for parent-teacher conferences, I remember that I was always embarrassed about what my parents would hear about me!
