I'm like old shoes. I've never been hip. I think the reason I'm still here is that I was never enough in fashion that I had to be replaced by something new.

My older kids are fantastic people. It can't be the result of my influence on them.

I enjoyed carpentry, and it was very good to me for 12 years.

I was never that much a focus of interest in my career. I'm aware of that now, which doesn't give me a lot of pleasure.

You have to have the darkness for the dawn to come.

You keep on going until you get it as close to being right as the time and patience of others will allow.

Bikes and planes aren’t about going fast or having fun; they’re toys, but serious ones.
