doctors would-be half
I ate while I was taking chemo. The doctors didn't know. I really didn't get any nausea. I didn't have side effects. I would be drained for a day and a half.
baseball games people
I love the game, it's the greatest game on earth, that's why I can't understand all of this talk about trying to make the game better. People talk about the high strike zone and changing this and that. Why? To speed up the game? That's the beauty of baseball. There is no time element.
spiritual blessing numbers
Blessings can come in a number of ways. The Lord doesn't give you what you want, the Lord gives you what you need.
revenge play momentum
I tell you, revenge plays a big part in momentum down here.
cancer tragedy why-not
Nothing I did contributed to me having cancer, so I can't sit back and say, 'Oh why me.' Why not me? Why does tragedy always have to hit someone else?
next firsts eric
I want to establish myself as the first Eric Davis, not the next Willie Mays.
jobs spring real
The last two times I went to spring training, I had to win a job, and if I didn't get off to a blazing start, I'm on the bench. Now, I've proven myself, so it's not essential that I get off to a real good start.
cancer people world
People saw me as being heroic, but I was no more heroic than I was with other injuries I had, like the lacerated kidney I suffered during the 1990 World Series. It's just that people haven't known anyone with a lacerated kidney, but everyone can relate to someone with cancer.
positive player organization
I've been hearing this since I first joined the Reds organization, that I'm going to be the next this or that. It's tough on a young player coming up. You show some positive things and everybody jumps on that and says you should be the next Willie Mays.
play way hometown
Everyone would like to play in their hometown, but right now I like Cincinnati, I like the way it's going. I'm happy.
player glad anticipate
For me to become the highest paid player in the franchise, it was something I didn't anticipate. But I'm glad. I like playing for Cincinnati.
aspirin
I don't even take aspirin.
people eric pieces
I don't want to be famous. I want to be secure. I don't want the world. I just want a piece of it. I want people to remember Eric Davis.

Life is too short to worry about anything
