The only thing that happens if you wait, is that you get older.

When a car's ahead of you, as long as you can see it, you get a tow, just like the draft in NASCAR. Even if it's a long ways down the track, it punches a hole in the air that has to help. When you're running alone, you can feel the difference, and it shows on the clock, too.

I don't have many superstitions, just dumb things I don't talk about. I will not sign an autograph with a green pen.

If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.

Desire is the key to motivation.

A goal isn’t something you just arrive at and stop. You have to stay curious and hungry and foolish...

My last race was at Le Mans in 2000, my first race was in 1959, so I dodged a lot of bullets along the way, I can tell you that.
