“You don't get better as you get older in your career. It's not natural...” — David Ortiz Quote

“You don't get better as you get older in your career. It's not natural to have your best years late in your career. So I'm trying to do whatever I can to keep my body feeling good for as long as I can.”

“Sometimes you just don't feel the same everyday, it doesn't matter what you do, but when you have people looking forward to seeing you perform for them, that puts you in the mood, and that's natural in Boston. That's why it's such a special place to play.”

“Sometimes when you're fighting, fighting, fighting, the mind needs some time off and you regroup and get back to normal.”

“As long as I am feeling good I will play football. As long as I am feeling fit, strong and being affective on and off the pitch, I will play the game I love.”

“I'm not here just to walk two rounds or four rounds and just show up. I want to be able to be competitive, and I truly believe I can still be competitive when I'm playing well and feeling good.”

“Everyone's glow up is different. For me, it's all about feeling like you're on the right path and feeling good.”
