About this Quote

Derek Jeter's quote speaks with the idea that he delights in music and dancing, but just when he remains in a comfy environment. He is shy when he is out in public, so it takes a lot to get him to open up and show his true self. This might be interpreted as a metaphor for his life in general, as he is an extremely private person and it takes a lot to get him to open and share his ideas and feelings. He delights in being around music due to the fact that it enables him to reveal himself in a manner that he can't when he remains in public. Music and dancing are a method for him to let go and be himself without worrying about what others believe. It is a method for him to be complimentary and express himself in such a way that he can't when he remains in public.
