Danica Patrick quotes

I take none of that to heart. I don't feel like there's anything that I need to do for anybody else. I want to win bad enough for myself anyway, that nothing anybody can say can make me want to win any more.

You know, it's always good to have seen a track before, just to kind of know where the little bumps are here and there, and just the general feel for the size.

To be honest, once you've driven around for about five, 10 laps, you don't notice a difference.

I mean, you've kind of got the track down, especially with ovals. The only thing that improves is that when race conditions come, you know what to expect slightly more from the track and from your car.

I feel like, sometimes, people, because of the amount of media, because of the amount of attention, people seem to think I have to do things. Like, I have to win right now! But I don't feel like that.

Antonio Tabucchi quotes

I don't go for people who lead full and satisfying lives.

But democracy isn't a state of perfection. It has to be improved, and that means constant vigilance.

As a writer, I've always been interested in others.

I don't know whether these people are going to find themselves, but as they live their lives they have no choice but to face up to the image others have of them. They're forced to look at themselves in a mirror, and they often manage to glimpse something of themselves.

People with lots of doubts sometimes find life more oppressive and exhausting than others, but they're more energetic - they aren't robots.

Top 5 quotes by Chow Yun-Fat

I couldn't care less about actors' trailers and food on sets and stuff like that - I just want to act.

An actor is only merchandise.

This is still a big barrier for me and it is for a lot of foreign actors.

Some of the substance of English words, I just don't understand at all because the culture's so strange to me.

Working in front of the camera keeps me alive.

Tom Stoppard quotes

Every exit is an entrance somewhere else.

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered.

Age is a high price to pay for maturity.

We're more of the love, blood, and rhetoric school. Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see.

Revolution is a trivial shift in the emphasis of suffering.
