“You have to assume that everything you do is public knowledge. Everyth...” — Derek Jeter Quote

You have to assume that everything you do is public knowledge. Everything. Because now everyone is a reporter. Everyone is a photographer.

You're playing a game, whether it's Little League or Game 7 of the Word Series. It's impossible to do well unless you're having a good time. People talk about pressure. Yeah, there's pressure. But I just look at it as fun.

During the off-season, I go to the movies almost every day.

The big difference for me is that, as I get older, I find it's a lot easier to stay in shape than it is to get back in shape.

I get nervous watching teammates. I get nervous for them. Late in the game, pressure situation, I'm nervous for them.

I think everything that any actor does, I would assume, is shaped by how and where they grew up.

When I'm on that stage, I assume honor. I assume compensation, and I should.

I know what I'm doing off the court. Everybody just sees pictures or videos of me, and if it looks out of shape, they just assume that I'm fat or I'm not working.

I believe you have to start with yourself, think about your bad habits and prejudices, not only in your profession but generally in life. Why do I assume that a doctor is a man? Something is indoctrinated from very early on.

Going to any place that you view as more politically oppressed than your own country, there's a weird tendency to assume that the whole existence is determined minute by minute by the political reality, but of course, that's not the case for any of us.
