I'm a lot older. I'm wiser. I know what to do now, and hopefully, I don't get in (anybody's) way.

I belong a Yankee. I'm really happy that I got the chance to sign a good contract, and really happy that I got the chance to stay with the Yankees. Going elsewhere, I was going to hear the offers, but the Yankees made it really tough.

He's (Rafael Palmeiro) always the left-handed swing you want to copy. He's got a real smooth swing and he's never off balance. He's always on top of the ball. I just like watching him hit.

My dad was the first one who said, 'You're going to end up behind the plate because you've got a very good arm and you're very smart when it comes to calling a game.'

Some days, you feel like a 22-year-old and some days you feel like a 40-year-old.

I try to go out and do the same thing every night. I've been taught since I was a kid that the only thing that matters is winning.

You have to understand what they (pitchers) do. That's my job. You have to find a way to get them through the game if they're not feeling good. When everything is going good and they're feeling one-hundred percent, it's my job to keep them that way. And you know what? If I see something, I'm going to let them know.

I could never wear another uniform. I will forever be a Yankee.

I don't want to be gone. I don't want to be somewhere else. I consider myself a Yankee.

Growing up, I kind of liked the way he (Thurman Munson) played. I didn't see much of him, but I remember him being a leader. I remember him really standing up for his teammates, and that really caught my eye.

You can always look back on having a good defensive day, even if you didn't do anything offensively. You won the game and you contributed.

I'm always happy. I like to have fun. During the game, I don't like showing my emotions, though. I'm all about winning the game. I take a lot of responsibility for that.

It's good to see a kid that young learning how to pitch. He's tough.

What people might find surprising: I taught my wife to change diapers when we had our first.

If I see a problem (in the clubhouse), I say something right away. I don't wait two or three days.

You gotta take care of yourself you cant do anything in excess.

He's (his father Jorge Posada IV) happy for me. He remembers all of my big games. When I hit my first home run in the World Series, he was here, and he cried. It's like I'm living his dream.
