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
It doesn't take any talent to play hard.
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
If you're going to play at all, you're out to win. Baseball, board games, playing Jeopardy, I hate to lose.
Derek Jeter
You can't be sensitive, because you're going to get criticized. I don't care who you are, you're going to get criticized.
Derek Jeter
When you put a lot of hard work into one goal and you achieve it, that's a really good feeling.
