| Elayne Boosler | I am thankful the most important key in history was invented. It's not the key to your house, your car, your boat, your safety deposit box, your bike lock or your private community. It's the key to order, sanity, and peace of mind. The key is 'Delete.' | 101 |
| Ellen Goodman | Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work, driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for, in order to get to a job that you need so you can pay for the clothes, car and the house that you leave empty all day in order to afford to live in it. | 101 |

| Guy Fieri | There are races and then there are races. And without a doubt, the Indy 500 is the race that I've always wanted to attend. And now, to be driving the Corvette Pace Car... this is going to be unbelievable. | 101 |
| Hugh Laurie | Riding my motorcycle around L.A. is like my own video game. But unlike many folks at the wheel, I am occupied with getting where I'm going and keeping myself safe. Most people are applying makeup, texting, and checking out the beauty in the next car. | 101 |
| Iqbal Quadir | In America, people buy cars, and they put very little money down. They get a car, and they go to work. The work pays them a salary; the salary allows them to pay for the car over time. The car pays for itself. | 101 |
| Nicolas Cage | One of the things that's interesting to me is I find things like caffeine and stunts actually relax me. When they're putting a bit of gel on my arm and lighting me on fire, or when I'm about to go into a high-speed car chase or rev a motorcycle up pretty fast, I find everything else around me slows down. | 101 |
| Oskar Schindler | If you saw a dog going to be crushed under a car, wouldn't you help him? | 101 |

| Apolo Ohno | I rolled the second car that I ever owned, a Toyota 4 Runner. This was winter in Colorado, two weeks before the 2002 Olympic trials. I was driving in the outside lane, and my rear tire caught some black ice, and we totally turned sideways to the point where we were heading right toward the median. | 101 |
| Arlie Russell Hochschild | Here is a new car, a new iPhone. We buy. We discard. We buy again. In recent years, we've been doing it faster. | 101 |
| Criss Angel | I have mentally overcome situations most of you would be terrified to ever attempt: heights, fire, needles, spiders, snakes, angry monkeys, being shot, being hit by a car, going blind - you name it, I have been in a situation where I have had to mentally overcome my inherent fears to do my job. | 101 |
| Dakota Fanning | ER was one of my favourites. I played a car accident victim who has leukemia. I got to wear a neck brace and nose tubes for the two days I worked. | 101 |
| Duane Chapman | Faith is the substance of hope - of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. So if you can hope for it and imagine it, and keep imagining and hoping and seeing yourself driving a new car, or seeing yourself getting that job, or seeing yourself excel, seeing yourself help that person - that is faith. | 101 |
| Florence Griffith Joyner | A muscle is like a car. If you want it to run well early in the morning, you have to warm it up. | 101 |
| Fred Hoyle | Space isn't remote at all. It's only an hour's drive away if your car could go straight upwards. | 101 |
| Henrik Fisker | If you think about jeans or phones or television, we are used to new brands popping up right and left. But in the car industry, we grew up with Mercedes, BMW, General Motors, and Ford, and nobody can remember during his or her upbringing a new car brand coming to life. | 101 |
| Kevin Barry | In the early nineties, I was a cub reporter on a city newspaper in Limerick, and assigned to the courthouse there. One day, an old detective sergeant came and whispered to me in the press pit. He pointed out a young offender, a teenager who was up for stealing a car or something relatively minor, and said, 'See this kid? He'll kill.' | 101 |
| Kevin Nealon | I was born in St. Louis; I lived there for three weeks and then my father graduated from St. Louis University, so we all got in the car and split. I don't really remember much. I grew up in Connecticut most of my life and then four years in Germany. My father worked for a helicopter company, so we went over there. | 101 |

| Rudolf Diesel | The automobile engine will come, and then I will consider my life's work complete. | 101 |
| Rutina Wesley | When I was 7, an old lady was driving too fast in my neighborhood and hit me with her car. I was running out of the house, and when I got halfway into the street, my mom saw the car and yelled for me to run back. As I turned around the car hit me, dragged me five houses down the road, and I fractured my collarbone. | 101 |
| Scott Baio | I love driving cars, looking at them, cleaning and washing and shining them. I clean 'em inside and outside. I'm very touchy about cars. I don't want anybody leaning on them or closing the door too hard, know what I mean? | 101 |
| Scott Bakula | You want to try and bring a character to life in an honest a way as you possibly can. It doesn't matter whether he's a doctor, an actor, a car salesman or a captain of a starship. If you can bring truth and honesty to that character, then your audience will believe you. | 101 |
| Siri Hustvedt | In August of 2002, I survived a car accident. Although I can still see the van speeding toward us, I cannot bring to mind the crash itself - only its aftermath. | 101 |
| Timothy West | The newly decorated theatres produced things like car parks and restaurants, so you could have a good night out, quite cheaply without all that bother of having to go somewhere else. | 101 |
| William Daniels | He's computerized, but I won't let him come on cold. I created KITT. I understand the personality of the car. | 101 |
| Aubrey de Grey | My approach is to start from the straightforward principle that our body is a machine. A very complicated machine, but none the less a machine, and it can be subjected to maintenance and repair in the same way as a simple machine, like a car. | 101 |
| Colin Angle | I thought boxes were the best toy. When my parents got a new car, I ran to my mother and said, 'Did it come in a box?' | 101 |
| Enrico Colantoni | It's like watching a car accident, that reality TV. | 101 |
| Eric Fellner | You can't develop a great car and sell it as an independent. You can develop a great car and make a deal with Mercedes. | 101 |

| Martha MacIsaac | Here's a trick to giving the birds-and-bees talk: You gotta do it in a car, so they can't escape. That's what all my girlfriends' parents did. | 101 |
| Michael Bay | Fast cars are my only vice. | 101 |
| Paul D. Boyer | Family trips to Yellowstone and to what are now national parks in Southern Utah, driving the primitive roads and cars of that day, were real adventures. | 101 |

| Eugene Chadbourne | Can you imagine a guy breaking into your car, and he steals your guitar case 'cause he thinks it's a guitar, and he gets it home and opens it up and there's a rake inside it, an electric toilet plunger and a dog skull? That actually happened. | 101 |
| Edward Herrmann | Automobiles have always been part of my life, and I'm sure they always will be. What is it about them that moves me? The sound of a great engine, the unity and uniqueness of an automobile's engineering and coachwork, the history of the company and the car, and, of course, the sheer beauty of the thing. | 101 |
| Gordon Sinclair | You talk about German technocracy and you get automobiles. | 101 |
| Jeff Gordon | When you're in a race car, you're going through so many different emotions throughout that race. | 101 |
| Jessica Chastain | I don't want to be in my car all day. I love getting up in the morning in Venice and walking my dogs down to the cafe to get my tea, and then perhaps going to a bookstore and sitting and reading, then walking to the beach. | 101 |
| Kevin Wilson | Short stories, for me, it's like you step inside this brand new car and you drive it and you drive it into a tree and you walk away from it. | 101 |

| Mario Lopez | There's three things men always talk about - women, sports, and cars. | 101 |
| Pamela Adlon | I went from buying my own condominium and a car for myself when I was 17 on 'The Facts of Life' to not being able to pay my rent. I was at the unemployment office all the time. I had to sell my record collection just to make ends meet. And then I started getting these voice-over jobs. | 101 |
| Paul McDonald | I sing both in my shower and in my car, mostly in my car, because I have this weird thing - whenever I'm singing to the radio - my friends kind of hate it - but I pick out the harmonies in my head, and I'm singing the harmonies to the tracks and I'm jamming it out. | 101 |
| Steve Winwood | The percentage you're paying is too high priced While you're living beyond all your means And the man in the suit has just bought a new car From the profit he's made on your dreams. | 101 |
| Bill Moseley | My dad loved to 'arrange things' to take us kids to that scared the crap out of us on Halloween. He'd take us to the old 'Hermit's House' at the edge of town. He'd park the car 100 yards down the street and say, 'Go back there and get something off the front porch!' | 101 |
| Brock Yates | I admit to wasting my life messing around with fast cars and motorcycles. | 101 |
| Candace Kita | One time, I was posing on a car for a calendar shoot. I was doused with oil and literally slid off the car, bikini, heels and all! | 101 |
| Casey James | I am a big car enthusiast. I totally understand guys like Jay Leno who have a thousand cars. But asking me my favorite car would be like asking my favorite song or favorite food - it changes everyday. | 101 |
| Chris DeWolfe | When you were growing up, your mom and dad told you to look both ways before crossing the street or not to get into a car with a stranger. It's the same with the Internet. We have a big responsibility and a huge role in bringing all the stakeholders to the table - users, parents, educators, law enforcement, government organisations. | 101 |
| Jordana Brewster | People spend so much time in their cars, and it's a legal way to have fun by speeding a little bit or testing yourself a little bit, and you get to invest in your car. For some people, it becomes their baby. | 101 |
| Mark-Paul Gosselaar | But my passion is racing cars. It's what I like to do in my off time. | 101 |
| Paul Fussell | Americans are the only people in the world known to me whose status anxiety prompts them to advertise their college and university affiliations in the rear window of their automobiles. | 101 |
| Randa Haines | A doctor is not a mechanic. A car doesn't react with a mechanic, but a human being does. | 101 |
| Terry Savage | Driving with one foot on the accelerator and the other on the brake is likely to get you nowhere, but certainly will burn out vital parts of your car. Similarly, cutting taxes on the middle class, but increasing them on the 'rich' is likely to result in an economic burnout. | 101 |
| Tony Earley | Depression is like pushing a car up a hill. It takes all my energy to push the car up the hill. I don't have any energy left to write. | 101 |
| Ben Falcone | The one thing I did know - because I've seen many, many of the road trip movies that everyone thinks about - is that death to a road trip movie happens when you spend too much time in the car. | 101 |
| Charles Pelly | Making a new car is so expensive that the risk factor is what takes the unique ideas and keeps reanalyzing them until they become very similar. | 101 |
| Chip Esten | When your dad is a country music fan and you take long car trips, you become one too. | 101 |
| Christine O'Donnell | I never had the high-paying job or the company car. It took me over a decade to pay off my student loans. I never had to worry about where to dock my yacht to reduce my taxes. | 101 |
| Craig Johnston | I've always had an inquisitive mind about everything from flowers to television sets to motor cars. Always pulled them apart - couldn't put 'em back, but always extremely interested in how things work. | 101 |
| Jessica Pare | I do get scared of the dentist, so a drive-through dentist might make me feel more at home. If I got to stay in my car. | 101 |
| Michael D. Barnes | Should we have background checks, waiting periods? To drive a car you have to pass a test that shows you know how to drive your car safely, you should have to do the same thing with guns. | 101 |
| Monica Ali | A new car is not going to change your life. | 101 |
| Rolf Harris | I will never shave off my beard and moustache. I did once, for charity, but my wife said, 'Good grief, how awful, you look like an American car with all the chrome removed.' | 101 |
| Susan Faludi | Divorced men are more likely to meet their car payments than their child support obligations. | 101 |
| Thomas S. Foley | If you don't drink, smoke, or drive a car, you're a tax evader. | 101 |
| Al Jardine | Yes, my grandfather worked with Thomas Edison on the electric car, and he sold electric cars at the 1900 World's Fair in Paris. | 101 |
| Brooke Langton | I compare it to being in a car accident. There's so much adrenaline rushing through you that you remember being in the accident but you don't remember any of the details. | 101 |
| Buck Baker | When I saw all those other drivers, I realized that they wanted to win that money just as much as I did. But I didn't have to worry. A tire came off my car and I was lucky I got it off the track. | 101 |
| Charlie Wilson | My father's nephew was the blues musician, Lowell Fulson. Every time he came around, he had a pretty car, a beautiful woman and a slick sharkskin suit. Believe it or not, that's how I decided I wanted to get into music. | 101 |
| Diane Johnson | Not having to own a car has made me realize what a waste of time the automobile is. | 101 |
| Dudley Moore | The best car safety device is a rear-view mirror with a cop in it. | 101 |
| John Searle | We often attribute 'understanding' and other cognitive predicates by metaphor and analogy to cars, adding machines, and other artifacts, but nothing is proved by such attributions. | 101 |
| Rodney Mullen | Any eyes on me - a late-night street sweeper, some dude texting in his parked car, the homeless guy talking to himself - make me feel uncomfortable when I skate. Everyone expects me to do certain things. | 101 |
| Roland Gift | I think I'm actually quite a materialistic person, I value what it takes to make a car or build a nice house. Money does change things, but how it changes people depends on how they react to it. | 101 |
| Ryan Hurst | I think it's particularly a distinctively American concept that resonates with American culture through biker culture. A motorcycle is an independent thing. You're like, 'I don't want to ride in a car with this person. I want to be independent and ride by myself. But, let's ride in a group. Let's be independent, together.' | 101 |
| Abraham Zapruder | He leaned about the same way in falling towards Jacqueline, forward, down towards the bottom of the car. | 101 |
| Marianne Wiggins | I'm fascinated by the narrative of geology, and I'm a veritable pack rat of a collector on the road. I keep a rock hammer in my car. | 101 |
| Rodger Ward | I assure you that the training that you get in a midget, in a sprint car and perhaps in a Silver Crown car is really the kind of experience that makes you into a damn good race driver. | 101 |
| A. J. Foyt | My dad was very successful running midgets in Texas. Then, his two drivers ran into some bad luck. People started saying that Daddy had lost his touch. That it was the cars and not the drivers. I wanted to race just to prove all those people wrong. | 101 |
| Andrew Hudgins | My parents were mourning the death of my sister. She was killed in a car accident before I was born, and I didn't know she existed until I was 13 or 14 years old. I knew I was growing up in a house where people were angry and sad. | 101 |
| Jamie-Lynn Sigler | My first car was a BMW. A white BMW. | 101 |
| Richard Murdoch | I'm not a bad driver. And I never will be because I took lessons when I was quite a boy. I never had to pass a test because there wasn't such a thing when I first started driving a motor car. So I didn't have to pass one. | 101 |
| Jarrett J. Krosoczka | I was raised by my grandparents, and they always made sure that I had a pencil and some paper, whether we were in the car or at a restaurant. While they were enjoying a nice meal, I would be sitting there drawing funny pictures of the waitress. | 101 |
| Jaime Hernandez | Every time I copy something, I can draw it for the rest of my life. But research is so painful - I mean just opening up a magazine looking for a picture of a car or looking out the window looking for a car is just hard! | 101 |
| James Woolsey | We aren't addicted to oil, but our cars are. | 101 |
| Jim Murphy | A move to a different town or school gives us new places to explore, new people to meet; a lost pet means we have to organize a careful search; baby-sitting requires looking out for dangers a young child can't foresee; a car crash or fire demands that we get help immediately. | 101 |
| Jessica Hecht | I don't mean to in any way impugn the makers of Bentley, but that car is nuts. When I do drive, I drive a Toyota Prius. So driving around the streets of Albuquerque in a Bentley made me feel so fake-a-rooney. | 101 |
| John Henry Carver | I had some vague memory of visiting Canberra as a lad, when we came up with my father by car. But when I made the long train journey from Sydney to Canberra and arrived at the little stop, I did wonder slightly whether this really was the national capital. | 101 |
| Justin Theroux | It's like, once you've seen Tom Hanks win the Golden Globes, the Oscars, you've seen his wife, what kind of car he drives, when you watch his movies, you can't fully get really lost in them. | 101 |
| James Norman Hall | Remote villages and communities have lost their identity, and their peace and charm have been sacrificed to that worst of abominations, the automobile. | 101 |
| James Hunt | If I get into a car on a circuit, I drive as fast as I can; that's it! | 101 |
| Bob Uecker | The biggest thrill a ballplayer can have is when your son takes after you. That happened when my Bobby was in his championship Little League game. He really showed me something. Struck out three times. Made an error that lost the game. Parents were throwing things at our car and swearing at us as we drove off. Gosh, I was proud. | 102 |
| Gail Collins | I admired the way McCain worked on campaign finance reform. I admired the way Nancy Pelosi stiffened the Democrats' spine during the health care debate. I admire the way Barack Obama has raised a dog in the White House without ever putting it on the roof of the car for a vacation drive. | 102 |
| Gregory Benford | It turns out that if you optimize the performance of a car and of an airplane, they are very far away in terms of mechanical features. So you can make a flying car. But they are not very good planes, and they are not very good cars. | 102 |
| Helmut Newton | It's that I don't like white paper backgrounds. A woman does not live in front of white paper. She lives on the street, in a motor car, in a hotel room. | 102 |
| Isaac Brock | I didn't mean to live in Portland. It was kind of an accident - I mean, the equivalent of my car breaking down there and me being like, 'Well... I guess this is what I'm doing. I just can't find a better alternate.' | 102 |
| Jodie Foster | It's very hard for me to get a new car. It's really hard for me to get a new house. It's really hard for me to move on from the things that give me stability. | 102 |
| Luke Evans | I used to take my car and go down to the South Island for five or six days and climb glaciers and jump out of planes and jump off bridges and go white water rafting - a bit of thrill-seeking. | 102 |
| Melania Trump | I don't have a nanny. I have a chef, and I have my assistant, and that's it. I do it myself. You know, those hours with your child are really important ones, even if it's just the two of you, being quiet in the car together. | 102 |
| Sammy Davis, Jr. | I had more clothes than I had closets, more cars than garage space, but no money. | 102 |
| Sebastian Junger | The negative effects of combat were nightmares, and I'd get jumpy around certain noises and stuff, but you'd have that after a car accident or a bad divorce. Life's filled with trauma. You don't need to go to war to find it; it's going to find you. We all deal with it, and the effects go away after awhile. At least they did for me. | 102 |
| Xavier Niel | In life, you need a house and a car. After that, you have a choice. | 102 |
| Akio Toyoda | When consumers purchase a Toyota, they are not simply purchasing a car, truck or van. They are placing their trust in our company. | 102 |
| Duane Chapman | I was in prison for a charge in Texas, murder one. Back in the '70s in Texas, I was there. I heard the shot. I was in the car. | 102 |
| Earl Wilson | If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of car payments. | 102 |
| Ethan Hawke | In New York, you've got Donald Trump, Woody Allen, a crack addict and a regular Joe, and they're all on the same subway car. | 102 |
| Henrik Fisker | We designed a car that is for daily commutes and that you charge every day. The less you use the gasoline engine, the better mpg. Essentially, the Karma can achieve dramatic savings and low CO2 output when used as intended, as a daily commuter. | 102 |
| Inga Cadranel | It's not that I don't want a fast car. I like the speed. I'm just not the type of person who finds a sports car a sexy car. | 102 |
| James Hillman | We approach people the same way we approach our cars. We take the poor kid to a doctor and ask, What's wrong with him, how much will it cost, and when can I pick him up? | 102 |
| Kathleen Troia McFarland | Russia does not have a modern economy: it's a petro-power. The only thing it sells that the world wants to buy is oil and natural gas. When was the last time anyone bought a Russian computer? A Russian car? A Russian cell phone? Russia is so dependent on high energy prices that if oil falls below $100 a barrel, the Kremlin can't meet payroll. | 102 |
| Kenyon Martin | Basketball is what got me out of the projects. It got my momma the house she never had, the car she never had. Nobody is going to get the best of me. You might score more points than me, but you're going to know you were in a dogfight. | 102 |
| Kimi Raikkonen | You always want to have a winning car, but there is no guarantee that it will be. | 102 |
| Lara Flynn Boyle | I love fast cars... and to go too fast in them. | 102 |
| Lawrence Summers | In the history of the world, no one has ever washed a rented car. | 102 |
| Nell Freudenberger | I can't listen to music when I'm writing. I like music best in a car or on the train. | 102 |
| Nicole Beharie | Stone Mountain, Georgia, still had Ku Klux Klan marches, and I had a wild and courageous mother who'd put us in the car to watch them. She wanted us to know those things existed. | 102 |
| Patsy Cline | I'm not gonna ride home in the car. I'll wait for Randy. I think I'll get home quicker. | 102 |
| Pierre Omidyar | My dad was a physician. As a kid, I remember driving around with him on weekends so he could do his rounds at the hospital and talk to patients. We'd spend time in the car talking about what was going on with them, their stories. | 102 |
| Richard Hammond | It's not just the kid who's spent every penny from his job to upgrade his car to tell the world he cares about sports cars, it's also the person driving around in a fuel-conscious hybrid electric car, because it's more a message to the world than an effective means of saving fuel, to be quite honest. | 102 |
| Sheena Easton | I would make tea for Joni Mitchell or clean her car, anything to be in the studio and watch her work. | 102 |
| Sufjan Stevens | I remember Detroit feeling really unsafe, feeling scared a lot. Our house was broken into, our car was stolen, we had to get a watchdog, we would get beat up in the street, I had my bike stolen. There was just a lot of real anarchy on the streets and sidewalks. | 102 |
| Edie Brickell | A lot of the songs start with an image. I was sitting there playing the guitar and I pictured this old, dirty green car, with the window rolled down, in the hot, hot, hot Texas heat, and this beautiful woman I knew when I was a kid sitting behind the wheel, looking out at me. | 102 |
| Goran Ivanisevic | My sporting hero was Drazen Petrovic, the NBA basketball player, who was killed in a car accident in 1993. He was a good friend, an unbelievable player, and I dedicated my Wimbledon win to him. | 102 |
| Haley Reinhart | I definitely I prefer to sing in the car. I don't sing in the shower, maybe its because that's the one time I don't need to talk to anyone so I should just shut up, otherwise I'm just, you know, jibber jabber. | 102 |
| Heikki Kovalainen | I am quite a relaxed person out of the car, but in the car I am aggressive, I never give up, I fight to the end and I try 100% all the time. | 102 |
| Jerry Della Femina | Pictures bring you inside, whether you see yourself driving a new car or as a hapless prisoner who is being abused. | 102 |
| Joanna Lumley | I hate the hand that comes out of a car and just drops litter in the street. I hate that! For some reason, it just fills me with fury! It's just utter laziness, lack of interest in other people, lack of interest in the planet, in the hedgehog who might eat the plastic bag, it's a lack of concern. | 102 |
| Kate Fleetwood | When you're in a rehearsal room, it's like getting into a car and going on a long journey with everyone's stuff in the back. If you keep stopping the car and going, 'Are you sure we want to go?' and think, 'This is really daunting,' you will get frightened, so you just have to keep ploughing through it. | 102 |
| Lauren Ambrose | Being an actress is similar to trying to fit in with the popular kids in high school. You're expected to drive the right car, wear the right clothes and say the right things. | 102 |
| Luca Cordero di Montezemolo | 'LaFerrari' means 'the Ferrari.' The excellence. In this car, we put everything we are able to do. Our extreme technology, extreme experience, extreme capability. And this has been the first Ferrari totally designed in our design center. | 102 |
| Prince Philip | When a man opens a car door for his wife, it's either a new car or a new wife. | 102 |
| Sanjeev Bhaskar | I've always saved. I believe in keeping money back for a rainy day and living within my means. I don't buy expensive clothes; I have a 10-year-old car I'm hoping to replace when a big job comes in. I suppose when we do go on family holidays, I am quite happy to spend when we are there. | 102 |
| Stone Gossard | Well, you go to Holland and everybody's on a bike - nobody would think to have a car. | 102 |
| Tom Chatfield | Modern motor vehicles are safer and more reliable than they have ever been - yet more than 1 million people are killed in car accidents around the world each year, and more than 50 million are injured. Why? Largely because one perilous element in the mechanics of driving remains unperfected by progress: the human being. | 102 |
| Will Durst | Men are superior to women, for one thing they can urinate from a speeding car. | 102 |
| Andrew Davies | I used to have this Mercedes, a dark blue 450SLC, which was the most beautiful car. I'd like to have another unusual, beautiful car. | 102 |
| Becki Newton | After leaving school, I travelled around Europe for about six months. In Denmark, I thought that was my chance to get an amazing haircut, so I went to what I thought was a great hairdresser. It turned out to be the car wash of hairdressers, and I walked out sporting yet another pudding bowl, but this time with a stripe bleached down the centre. | 102 |
| Chris Bangle | The old 7 Series, the E38, was an elegant car, an evolution of the classic BMW look. But it wasn't penetrating the luxury market as we desired. It just didn't have the presence to be noticed. | 102 |
| Clark Gregg | I was really sad after 'The Avengers' when I realized I was not going to have a part in 'Thor 2' or 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier.' But I'm not arguing with my fantastic plane and my really cool car. | 102 |
| Jeff Gordon | I just feel rejuvenated in such a big way because of these race cars I get to drive. | 102 |
| Michael Steger | A perfect day would be to get into the car, drive out to Yosemite and go camping. | 102 |
| Peta Wilson | I don't buy fur coats or jewelry. I have old cars. | 102 |
| Ryan Tedder | I think the true test of a pop song, for me, and I've talked to a lot of other writers about this, is you take your demo, you pop it in your car and you drive down Sunset Blvd. to Santa Monica, and that's the Hollywood car test. | 102 |
| Robbie Coltrane | See, what you're meant to do when you have a mid-life crisis is buy a fast car, aren't you? Well, I've always had fast cars. It's not that. It's the fear that you're past your best. It's the fear that the stuff you've done in the past is your best work. | 102 |
| Sunil Mittal | We lived by very complex import and export policies, a very complex industrial licensing regime. Very few people could get licences, which were required right from manufacturing a pin to manufacturing a car, and generally went to people who found favour with the government. | 102 |
| Carrie Snow | A male gynecologist is like an auto mechanic who has never owned a car. | 102 |
| Jenson Button | To understand the intensity of driving an F1 car, you have to be in it. When you're driving a 750hp machine at 200mph, the noise and the vibrations are incredible. The G-force when you take big corners is like someone trying to rip your head off. You hit the brakes, and it feels as if the skin is being pulled off your body. | 102 |
| Martha Gellhorn | Why do people talk of the horrors of old age? It's great. I feel like a fine old car with the parts gradually wearing out, but I'm not complaining,... Those who find growing old terrible are people who haven't done what they wanted with their lives. | 102 |
| Melissa De Sousa | When you're in your 20s, you're a little more carefree; you're single. You have a very different way of looking at the world and experiencing the world. But later in your 30s, when you have children, a career, career obstacles, mortgages, car payments and relationships, you have to negotiate; that's a very different life. | 102 |
| Richard Gough | I look at the car park and myself and Dave Watson come in with our old cars, and these young lads come in with their new Porches. I think that society has changed, there seems to be a lack of respect nowadays. | 102 |
| Tom Hunter | But once you have satisfied your material needs, which I think every wealth creator should - the house, the car, the plane, the boat - what comes next? | 102 |
| Camille Guaty | When I first moved to Los Angeles, I had a really bad run. I would sleep in my car during the day outside the Disney building in Burbank, and that's where I got my first job, which is really weird. I liked to stay around the studios and kind of get the good vibes going. | 102 |
| Eleanor Robson Belmont | A private railroad car is not an acquired taste. One takes to it immediately. | 102 |
| Jessica Pare | I like to sing around the bonfire, in my car and in the shower. | 102 |
| Lou Thesz | I remember things that happened sixty years ago, but if you ask me where I left my car keys five minutes ago, that's sometimes a problem. | 102 |
| Mary Cheney | It wasn't a secret that I was gay. I'd come out to my parents during my junior year of high school, on the day that I also wrecked the family car. | 102 |
| Michael Azerrad | For Nirvana, putting out their first major-label record was like getting into a new car. But the runaway success was like suddenly discovering that the car was a Ferrari and the accelerator pedal was Krazy Glued to the floorboard. | 102 |
| Mohamed El-Erian | Investors have few spare tires left. Think of the image of a car on a bumpy road to an uncertain destination that has already used up its spare tire. The cash reserves of people have been eaten up by the recent market volatility. | 102 |
| Richard Petty | Cotton Owens was leading and daddy was second. They came up on me and I moved over to let them pass. Cotton went on, but daddy bumped me in the rear and my car went right into the wall. | 102 |
| Tom Arnold | Environmentalists have a very conflicted relationship with their cars. | 102 |
| Tom Dempsey | The car business is a lot like football. In football, you have to win once a week. In the car business, you have to win every day. | 102 |
| Bill Conti | In the back of your mind, when you say you want to write music for the movies, you're saying that you want a big house, a big car and a boat. If you just wanted to write music, you could live in Kansas and do it. | 102 |
| Buck Baker | Those youngsters go out there and set a record and clinch the pole position. But what do you do if you wreck your car. That record doesn't spend too well. | 102 |
| Christa Campbell | I love doing all of my own stunts. Anything. Even if they are telling me, 'No, no, no! You can't do that!' I'll do it. Like crashing my car through the gate, climbing up the building, kicking in a window... I love doing all of that stuff. | 102 |
| John Barrowman | I have a real passion for driving. Earlier on in my life I wanted to be a race car driver. But I don't pay an extortionate amount of money for cars. I'm pretty frugal. | 102 |
| Ronald Steel | Discount air fares, a car in every parking space and the interstate highway system have made every place accessible - and every place alike. | 102 |
| Abraham Zapruder | Yes, sir, a patrol car came and took me down to a station where they were trying to develop films, but they hadn't got the facilities to develop colored film. | 102 |
| Al Unser | I've got a great team of engineers behind this race car. I've got a great bunch of mechanics that make it reliable. This car is developed to go out there and be better than the Reynard, and I feel that it is. | 102 |
| Alfred P. Sloan | A car for every purse and purpose. | 102 |
| Amber Cope | I am not only overwhelmed with excitement to be back in the seat but also to show my support to help raise awareness to end domestic violence and sexual assault by displaying the 'No More' symbol as I pilot the No. 24 car. | 102 |
| James Cagney | Perhaps people, and kids especially, are spoiled today, because all the kids today have cars, it seems. When I was young you were lucky to have a bike. | 102 |
| Manal al-Sharif | When women break that taboo and they're not afraid to drive that car by herself - that's it. Now she has the guts to speak up for herself and take action. | 102 |
| Michael Andretti | Running on different types of racetracks is challenging - not only for the drivers, but even more for the team members who have to make adjustments to the cars before each race. | 102 |
| Sean Hampton | A dream without ambition is like a car without gas... you're not going anywhere. | 102 |
| Andy Andrews | When I was 19 years old, both of my parents died in the same year; my mom of cancer and my dad in a car accident. Through the next two or three years and a series of bad decisions - all my own, I might add - I ended up literally homeless, before that was even a word. I even slept occasionally under a pier on the Gulf Coast. | 102 |
| Jean Pigozzi | I have very long legs and I hate driving anything unless it's a boat or an ATV in the jungle. I like to sit in the back of a car, where I can look out the window, answer my emails on my iPad, or hold hands with a pretty girl. | 102 |
| Jackie Stewart | The years I raced in were fantastic. There was so much change in the cars. We went from treaded tyres to no wings right through to slicks to enormous wings. | 102 |
| Junior Johnson | Since my induction into the Sports Hall of Fame, I have wanted to have my No. 3 Chevy on exhibit for sports fans to see. I hope others will enjoy the car as much as I have. | 102 |
| Richard Dawkins | Design can never be an ultimate explanation for anything. It can only be a proximate explanation. A plane or a car is explained by a designer but that's because the designer himself, the engineer, is explained by natural selection. | 103 |
| Steven Spielberg | My dad took me out to see a meteor shower when I was a little kid, and it was scary for me because he woke me up in the middle of the night. My heart was beating; I didn't know what he wanted to do. He wouldn't tell me, and he put me in the car and we went off, and I saw all these people lying on blankets, looking up at the sky. | 103 |
| Ben Sweetland | The world is full of abundance and opportunity, but far too many people come to the fountain of life with a sieve instead of a tank car... a teaspoon instead of a steam shovel. They expect little and as a result they get little. | 103 |
| E. L. Doctorow | It's like driving a car at night. You never see further than your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way. | 103 |
| Geoffrey Boycott | To have some idea what it's like, stand in the outside lane of a motorway, get your mate to drive his car at you at 95 mph and wait until he's 12 yards away, before you decide which way to jump. | 103 |
| Jeff Foxworthy | If you own a home with wheels on it and several cars without, you just might be a redneck. | 103 |
| Jimmie Johnson | I do find it amusing when somebody cuts me off, makes an aggressive move on me in a car. I'm like, 'Do you have any idea what I do for a living? Why?' | 103 |
| Lynsey Addario | I was kidnapped by Sunni insurgents near Fallujah, in Iraq, ambushed by the Taliban in the Korengal Valley in Afghanistan, and injured in a car accident that killed my driver while covering the Taliban occupation of the Swat Valley in Pakistan. | 103 |
| Meek Mill | The Rolls Royce was the real first car. It wasn't the first new car I got, but it was the first real car I bought that's like, 'Wow, I got this.' | 103 |
| Yvonne Strahovski | I remember being at Greenblatt's on Sunset, and some guy just walked straight up to me, and he had some bling on and whatever, and said something about a party down in Malibu and asked if I would jump in his car and go to the party. All I could think was, 'Who are you? I don't know you, and I don't care about how good your car is.' | 103 |
| Anthony Foxx | Whether you live in a city or a small town, and whether you drive a car, take the bus or ride a train, at some point in the day, everyone is a pedestrian. | 103 |
| Astro Teller | Most of us have to spend a lot of energy to learn how to drive a car. Then we have to spend the rest of our lives over-concentrating as we drive and text and eat a burrito and put on makeup. As a result, 30,000 people die every year in a car accident in the U.S. | 103 |
| Ed Markey | You have to wait six months to purchase a fuel efficient automobile made from overseas. | 103 |
| Emily Procter | To say that I am organized is an understatement, but my car tells a different story. | 103 |
| Gary Paulsen | Adults are locked into car payments and divorces and work. They haven't got time to think fresh. | 103 |
| Henry Selick | Every kid has a toy that they believe is their best friend, that they believe communicates with them, and they imagine it being alive, their toy horse or car or whatever it is. Stop-motion is the only medium where we literally can make a toy come to life, an actual object. | 103 |
| Hope Davis | Every summer my husband and I pack our suitcases, load our kids into the car, and drive from tense, crowded New York City to my family's cottage in Maine. It's on an island, with stretches of sea and sandy beaches, rocky coasts, and pine trees. We barbecue, swim, lie around, and try to do nothing. | 103 |
| Kurt Busch | There are going to be little victories that we claim, even if it's finishing 15th and putting the car back in hauler without a scratch on it. | 103 |
| Lance Gross | My parents always taught me never to take anything for granted because it can be taken away from you like that, especially when it comes to looks. I could get into a car crash tomorrow and disfigure my face. So I have to stay grounded. | 103 |
| Loretta Swit | So much of life is luck. One day you make a right turn and get hit by a car. Turn left and you meet the love of your life. I think I made the correct turn. | 103 |
| Lynn Jurich | For me, not owning a car means I may spend a little extra time on public transportation, but I can use that time to read, catch up on work projects, and make the phone calls I couldn't get to earlier. Plus, I never waste time at the mechanics or gas station. | 103 |
| Markus Persson | If you build a car, you can only sell it once. If you paint a fence, you only get paid for it once. If you create a piece of software that's essentially free to reproduce, you can keep getting paid over and over perpetually. | 103 |
| Nigel Mansell | Racing a thoroughbred grand prix car in front of a home crowd will be a surreal and mighty experience. | 103 |
| Richard Hammond | Now, personally, I like a car with some sort of character. | 103 |
| Ron Wyden | Police departments no longer have to pay overtime or divert resources from other projects to find out where an individual goes - all they have to do is place a tracking device on someone's car or ask a cell phone company for that individual's location history and the technology does the work for them. | 103 |
| Adam Ferrara | I don't have a car in Manhattan because you have to choose between a car and an apartment. It's that expensive. | 103 |
| Ashton Shepherd | One of my favorites is one called 'Rory's Radio' that I wrote about my brother Jeff's best friend growing up - his name was Rory Dunigan. I dedicated my first record to my brother, who got killed in a car accident in 1999, and I really didn't have any songs on the first album about him, nothing on a personal note. | 103 |
| Billy Campbell | The first trip I remember taking was on the train from Virginia up to New York City, watching the summertime countryside rolling past the window. They used white linen tablecloths in the dining car in those days, and real silver. I love trains to this day. Maybe that was the beginning of my fixation with leisurely modes of travel. | 103 |
| Bud Abbott | Well, I always had a chauffer, because I have never driven a car in my life. I still can't drive. | 103 |
| Dani Shapiro | Sometimes, I'm driving along in my car, and a song from my high-school years comes on the radio: Springsteen's 'Thunder Road.' Just the opening few chords make me want to roll down the window and let the wind blow back my hair. | 103 |
| Emerson Fittipaldi | The racing driver's mind has to have the ability to have amazing anticipation, coordination, and reflex. Because of the speed the car goes. | 103 |
| Georgia Salpa | My worst habit is probably that I'm extremely messy. I'm a big scatter-brain - I'm always losing my car keys, or worse, forgetting where I parked my car in the car park. | 103 |
| Heikki Kovalainen | Nothing's ever too fast. Maybe sometimes on the road some people are too fast if they don't know how to control the car, but in racing, the faster and more power and grip, the better it is. | 103 |
| John Niven | The mechanic could lift up the bonnet of the car and show me four dwarves strapped to a pair of tandems and tell me that the motor was actually dwarf-powered and that one of the little fellows had to be replaced, and I'd just be numbly writing out a cheque and scribbling 'new dwarf - car' on the stub. | 103 |
| Mary Barra | My father was a die maker for 39 years, so I had a basic understanding of the automobile industry and what the manufacturing world was like, just from the opportunity to spend time with him - just talking, because he was a car buff. | 103 |
| Travis Kalanick | I spent a disproportionate amount of my time in a car in L.A. I'm 35 years old. If you add up the hours spent in cars, it would be years. | 103 |
| Trish Stratus | As far as luxury goes, about the only thing I do is... I go first class all the way. I live on the road, so when I'm out there, I'm getting the nice hotel suite, I'm getting the luxury car, I'm eating the good food, and I make sure I take care of myself on the road. | 103 |
| Barry Marshall | Dad always explained the car engine when he repaired it, and he had many technical books, so I was making electromagnets by age eight as well as reading my mother's medical and nursing books. I suspect I was born with a boundless curiosity, and this was encouraged through my childhood. | 103 |
| Beverley Mitchell | In real life, one of my friends was killed in a car accident during our sophomore year. | 103 |
| Charlie Kimball | I have a lot of great racing memories growing up in Europe as a young boy - playing with car parts on my dad's desk, watching the races on Sunday afternoons to try and spot him on TV, even having the chance to go to Formula 1 races where he was working. | 103 |
| Dallas Roberts | Like all kids who want to be in action movies, I want to jump out of a speeding car, shoot guns, slide out the side in slow motion like a John Woo movie. | 103 |
| Danny Masterson | When I was 15, my parents left town for a month. They hid the keys to the car, but I found them. That month, I drove my stepdad's Thunderbird Super Coupe into Manhattan every day, and I would crank Cypress Hill as I flew around the city, racing the taxis. | 103 |
| David Alan Grier | Every little kid has always wanted to be a race car driver. This gets some of that out. | 103 |
| Larry McMurtry | No illusion is more crucial than the illusion that great success and huge money buy you immunity from the common ills of mankind, such as cars that won't start. | 103 |
| Mark Bradford | The police pull up in back of my car and run my plates - they don't see you as you are; they see you through a racialized negative gaze. I think the best thing is not to internalize it too much, or it'll make you crazy because you know it's going to happen again. | 103 |
| Martin Winterkorn | The two inventions of the century, the car and the computer, are gradually coming closer together. | 103 |
| May-Britt Moser | We didn't care about salaries and having a nice car. We just cared about science and were really ambitious. | 103 |
| Pastor Maldonado | I just want to do my best, to be as close to the top as I can, and to get the maximum out of the car. | 103 |
| Ryan Tedder | I wish people would spend their money on hybrid cars. | 103 |
| Alice Lowe | I don't have kids, a mortgage, or a car. That has let me hold out for the jobs I want to do, and to sit in a cold room in the winter with fingerless gloves, writing. | 103 |
| Bernard Tschumi | I was once in a very, very bad car accident. So my drawing arm is full of pins and platinum stuff. Occasionally it hurts. But I found that after the arm was put back together I could draw better than before. I have no idea why. | 103 |
| Brock Yates | The automobile, both a cause and an effect of this decentralization, is ideally suited for our vast landscape and our generally confused and contrary commuting patterns. | 103 |
| Christina Applegate | I wasn't one to go out and buy a new car and stereo system and expensive clothes. My mom helped keep me grounded. | 103 |
| Clint Howard | I don't act because I love doing it, I act because it's my job. At the end of the year, I gotta pay my taxes, bills, doctors, insurance, car insurance, the occasional vacation. It's a wonderful job. The upside is that it is exciting and different... the downside is that it is an extremely insecure job. | 103 |
| David Malpass | People's jobs are the biggest asset that they have. The net present value of your job is worth more than your house or your stock portfolio. As people decide whether they're going to buy a car, they're more concerned about whether they have a job and are likely to have a job next year. | 103 |
| Jenson Button | To drive an F1 car you have to be a little mad. On the morning of a race there's a mix of excitement and fear. If it's a wet track, then it's worse as you're not in control most of the time, which is the thing all drivers fear the most. | 103 |
| Kenny Scharf | I always thought it would be a great thing to do an art carwash. So you can actually go and get your car washed, but while you're sitting around waiting you can walk in that hallway where you look at the cars going through the window, and that could be changing exhibitions. | 103 |
| Leland Orser | My very first role was with James Earl Jones on 'Gabriel's Fire' on TV. He drove a Chevy Citation, which is the exact same car that I bought from a guy in San Francisco called Sandy Boone. I showed up on set, and James Earl Jones was driving the car I had bought from Sandy for $250. | 103 |
| Mary Meeker | A captivating moment was when I realized that people, including myself, were not saying, 'I just bought an item on eBay.' They were saying, 'I just won an item on eBay.' It was the thrill of the hunt. I bought a car on eBay. | 103 |
| Michael Frayn | A man sits in his car at the traffic lights, waiting for them to go green. | 103 |
| Richard Widmark | Ford used to come to work in a big car with two Admiral's flags, on each side of the car. His assistant would be there with his accordion, playing, Hail to the Chief. | 103 |
| Craig Johnston | So for a year I spent all my time hiding from Jack Charlton in the car park practising my skills. | 103 |
| Anthony LaPaglia | I can't find my car keys in the morning. Trying to get out of my house is a nightmare. 'Where's my wallet? Where are my keys? I have to go find a missing person.' | 103 |
| John Surtees | Obviously the first sentiment is disappointment that we didn't get the car home and more disappointment that at the time that it stopped the car was in the lead. | 103 |
| Mackenzie Crook | I haven't got a car or a house. I've got a wife, but I didn't pay for her! I spend all my money on my glorious wife. She's here with a knife at my throat! | 103 |
| Jackie Stewart | We were racing at circuits where there were no crash barriers in front of the pits, and fuel was lying about in churns in the pit lane. A car could easily crash into the pits at any time. It was ridiculous. | 103 |
| Joko Beck | There are many people in the world who feel that if only they had a bigger car, a nicer house, better vacations, a more understanding boss, or a more interesting partner, then their life would work. We all go through that one. Slowly we wear out most of our 'if onlies.' | 103 |
| Joyce Cary | The will is never free - it is always attached to an object, a purpose. It is simply the engine in the car - it can't steer. | 103 |
| Jessica Scorpio | When people switch to car-sharing from car ownership, they reduce their vehicle miles traveled by 44 percent, and thus their greenhouse gas emissions go down by, like, 40 percent. | 103 |
| Marilyn Manson | If a kid is old enough to drive a car or buy a gun, isn't he old enough to be held personally responsible for what he does with his car or gun? Or if he's a teenager, should someone else be blamed because he isn't as enlightened as an eighteen-year-old? | 104 |
| Christopher Lee | One of the first things a British visitor to Southern California discovers is that he must have a car. Freeways. Bad public transport. I took driving lessons. | 104 |
| E. B. White | Everything in life is somewhere else, and you get there in a car. | 104 |
| Murray Walker | The lead car is unique, except for the one behind it which is identical. | 104 |
| Nick Mancuso | At root fame is a sham. I'm not going to live forever and if I am I certainly need don't you to tell me that so that I will buy a car or a box of dried up crackers. | 104 |
| Olesya Rulin | Me in high school, I was kind of a loner. I had a handful of friends. I'd eat my lunch in my car every day in my senior year. I went to ballet. I was a ballerina, so I was very focused on that. You kind of have to be. That was two-thirds of my week, going to ballet class. | 104 |
| Oscar Isaac | I've done movies I'm very proud of, but there's always a sense of: 'Come see this shiny new car!' The question I hate the most is: 'Why should people see it?' | 104 |
| Owen Paterson | I was perhaps about 10 years old when a local farmer rang us up to say he had found a young badger and would we take it in. So we did; it was a female called Bessy and she lived in the boiler room. She was extremely intelligent, had a very low opinion of cats but loved the dogs. She was pretty well trained; she went in the car. | 104 |
| Tony Stewart | I am a racer. I'm not a race car driver. I am a racer. I race. That's what I do. I don't go on vacations. I don't take my family on vacations because I don't have a family. My family is the racing family. | 104 |
| Valentino Rossi | Maybe the bike is more dangerous, but the passion for the car for me is second to the bike. | 104 |
| Willard Scott | Now that I'm a grandfather myself, I realize that the best thing about having grandkids is that you get the kid for the best part of the ride - kind of like owning a car for only the first 10,000 miles. You can have your grandchildren for a couple of days and then turn them back over to the parents. | 104 |
| Amber Heard | My very best friend died in a car accident when I was 16 years old. That was the hardest blow emotionally that I have ever had to endure. Suddenly, you realize tomorrow might not come. Now I live by the motto, 'Today is what I have.' | 104 |
| Axl Rose | I go to movies, go out with friends, go to car shows. I have a zoo. | 104 |
| Baba Kalyani | Before 2000, we were unable to design a single car; all the cars were designed in Japan, Europe or somewhere else. We were just converting. | 104 |
| Doug Larson | If all the cars in the United States were placed end to end, it would probably be Labor Day Weekend. | 104 |
| Gerald McRaney | We're one of the forces that causes actors to fasten seat belts before they take off chasing the bad guy in the car... or removes some of the cigarette smoking on television. | 104 |
| Henrik Fisker | I like to have the widest part of the car being the wheels and not the body. It gives it a more athletic look and, with the sculpture, helps make a car look sexy. | 104 |
| Kenneth Tynan | A critic is a man who knows the way but can't drive the car. | 104 |
| Laura Mvula | I remember listening to Miles Davis in the car with my dad. I had just done my Grade 5 piano exam, and I was quite cocky. I said, 'It sounds like he's played the wrong note there.' I remember the look of horror on my dad's face, and thinking, 'Wow, I have to figure out why that is not acceptable.' | 104 |
| Mark Zupan | I'm not scared of getting hurt. I'm not scared of, pretty much, anything. If you live your life scared, what's the fun in living it? If you were scared of getting hit by a car, would you still cross the street? | 104 |
| Mary Quant | I remember one day, when things were going frightfully well, I went to buy myself a really smashing car. I asked them to show me a Porsche with an automatic gearbox, and the salesman called over all the other salesmen, and they stood around absolutely roaring with laughter. | 104 |
| Nick Mason | I have about 40 cars, of which 25 to 30 are what you might call serious. | 104 |
| Nigel Mansell | The format of the race weekend is also very well thought out. We have enough practice time to get the cars well set-up and have a proper qualifying session where we can do as many laps as we like, which is great for the drivers and spectators. | 104 |
| Richard Hammond | No action hero is more closely associated with cars than James Bond. | 104 |
| T-Pain | I love vintage cars because you can do so much more to them. | 104 |
| Tom Glavine | That was my pride and joy - that I made it through all those years of minor hockey without losing any of my teeth; then, I ended up losing them in a car accident in New York when I was riding in a taxi. So, I end up losing my teeth, but not in the glamorous fashion I envisioned. | 104 |
| Brody Armstrong | We also listen to PJ Harvey; a lot of driving music. You need something a little more relaxing in the car. | 104 |
| Dax Shepard | I think all males from Detroit have an obsession with cars. | 104 |
| Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt | In Brussels, you are able to have a lot of appointments in a day. In Paris, you can have one, two, maybe three, but you spend all your time on the road, in the car or in the suburbs. In Brussels, everything is easy. It's not a very big city, and the people are very quiet and warm. | 104 |
| Gayle Lynds | 'Mosaic' is about what we see and what we don't see. I learned how people can develop other senses to compensate for a missing one when I was a child. My best friend, Carol, who is profoundly deaf, saved me from an approaching car that she 'heard' when I didn't. | 104 |
| Jason Reitman | Can you design a Rorschach test that's going to make everyone feel something every time - and that looks like a Rorschach test? It's easy to show a picture of a kitten or a car accident. The question is, how abstract can you get and still get the audience to feel something when they don't know what's happening to them? | 104 |
| Lauren London | The serenity prayer, 'God grant me the strength to accept...' That's a prayer that's actually in my car. I say it every day. | 104 |
| Bryan Callen | Guys want a 500 horsepower car. I'd rather have one horsepower - in a horse. That's macho. You go to pick up your date and you show up on a horse. | 104 |
| Craig T. Nelson | I had a '56 Ford, and my first car was a '49 Chevy. I converted it to a stick and used to race with the other high school kids down along the river. | 104 |
| Geoff Hoon | I drove 3,500 miles this summer on our family holiday, we drove across 10 countries. I have driven across the United States four times. I love cars, I love being in cars, I think so do most people. I want to help and support those people who have that same kind of enthusiasm for driving that I have. | 104 |
| Jeff Gordon | I think fear is what keeps us from going over the edge. I mean, as a race car driver, I don't think what makes a good race car driver is a fearless person. I think it's somebody that is comfortable being behind the wheel of something that's somewhat out of control. | 104 |
| Lauren Lee Smith | I don't think Mercedes-Benz says anything about me, really. I was in a situation where I was able to get a really nice car, and I'm proud to have it. | 104 |
| Luke Perry | Growing up in the Midwest, people don't drive Porsches and Ferraris. They drive Fords and Chevys. And so even if you have the opportunity to buy a more expensive car, it doesn't occur to you because it's not what you relate to. | 104 |
| Ruud van Nistelrooy | Because of that I don't care when I read in the newspaper that I am colourblind. I went through a red light in my car and I stopped when I before a green light. So I must be really colourblind, eh? | 104 |
| Allan McNish | I think music can really affect people's emotions and, when I am about to get into a race car, I definitely listen to music with a good beat - that's when you've got the adrenalin pumping. And the time before you go into a race weekend, you have a lot of emotion and adrenalin, and a lot of focus. | 104 |
| Cuba Gooding, Jr. | The hardest part was when I was in high school not having a job and always being broke. I had to get to auditions without a car. I either took the bus or walked. | 104 |
| David J. C. MacKay | The amount of energy saved by switching off the phone charger is exactly the same as the energy used by driving an average car for one second. | 104 |
| Josh Fox | I love driving. I still drive a 1993 Toyota Camry. I do want to get an electric car, but it's less of a carbon footprint if you keep your old, fuel-efficient car on the road than if you say 'build me a whole new car.' | 104 |
| Serge Schmemann | Parisians overwhelmingly buy small cars. And it's not because people are petite, but because fuel is drop-dead expensive. Gasoline costs more than twice as much in Paris as in New York. | 104 |
| Alan Davies | I don't drive around London much. Any journey around Islington involves hundreds of speed bumps that seem to tear the bottom of your car off. | 104 |
| John Scalzi | When I was 10, I was hit by a car, which turned my right tibia into a jigsaw puzzle. | 104 |
| John Searle | I will argue that in the literal sense the programmed computer understands what the car and the adding machine understand, namely, exactly nothing. | 104 |
| John Surtees | I get appalled when I see good drivers being left on the sidelines because they haven't come up with the half million to a million to put themselves in a competitive car. | 104 |
| Matthew Barney | I have a need to make these sorts of connections literal sometimes, and a vehicle often helps to do that. I have a relationship to car culture. It isn't really about loving cars. It's sort of about needing them. | 104 |
| Mia Sara | I'm always in favor of more glamour. I embarrass my children, I think. I am the lady in feathers in the car pool line. | 104 |
| Josie Maran | I have a Volvo S60R and it's a pretty fast car, the R says it all. | 104 |
| Jason Behr | Germans make nice cars. | 104 |
| Jason McCoy | Porsche is a driver's car - a performance car. That was funny - here's this awesome car, but it's got no cup holders. | 104 |
| Erma Bombeck | My kids always perceived the bathroom as a place where you wait it out until all the groceries are unloaded from the car. | 105 |
| Ayrton Senna | When you are fitted in a racing car and you race to win, second or third place is not enough. | 105 |
| Dan Lipinski | The hydrogen powered car, with its high fuel mileage and zero emission rate, is just one example of the products under development that will help increase our energy independence. | 105 |
| Frank Carson | Have you heard about the Irishman who reversed into a car boot sale and sold the engine? | 105 |
| Jimmie Johnson | Driving will never be away from me - I can't just give it up. It's all I've ever done, and there's something about being in that car. | 105 |
| Jonathan Haidt | Trying to run Congress without human relationships is like trying to run a car without motor oil. Should we be surprised when the whole thing freezes up? | 105 |
| Olivia Munn | A geek isn't the skinny kid with a pocket protector and acne. There can be computer geeks, video game geeks, car geeks, military geeks, and sports geeks. Being a geek just means that you're passionate about something. | 105 |
| Paul Hogan | I was flavour of the year for a couple of years, and then, like everyone else, I faded into obscurity. I didn't car;, I loved it. | 105 |
| Peter Steele | I like to put on hardcore when I have to clean my apartment, which I hate to do, but it's motivational. I like old heavy metal when I'm outside working on my car. Music has definite functions for me. | 105 |
| Valentino Rossi | I race to win. If I am on the bike or in a car it will always be the same. | 105 |
| Aaron Paul | I live a good life but a pretty simply life. I just store all my money under my mattress. My wife and I travel, and I bought my dream car, the Cobra. | 105 |
| Alain Prost | People don't understand that it was maybe my biggest pleasure to drive an F1 car when it's wet. | 105 |
| Alexandra Paul | Electric cars aren't pollution-free; they have to get their energy from somewhere. | 105 |
| Charlie Rose | The alarm rings 4:45, again at 5, but I wake up 4:30 naturally. Shower, shave, orange juice, perk my own coffee, hear the news, and the CBS car arrives 5:30. | 105 |
| Emily Blunt | I used to look like a deer in headlights on the red carpet. You step out of the car and it's bedlam. Everyone's got crazy eyes. | 105 |
| Emily Mortimer | I borrowed my friend's car the other day in an attempt to persuade my husband that we needed a car and literally this is true, in the first day of borrowing the car, I got three tickets and I rear-ended it. | 105 |
| Michael Fassbender | When I was four, I just wanted to drive, I collected toy cars. Where does that sort of thing come from? In hindsight you go, 'Oh, liked it because of this.' Maybe it's just the wheel. | 105 |
| Nico Rosberg | I remember my father's last race very clearly when he drove at Hockenheim in front of 100,000 people and I was sitting next to him on the roof of his car and waving to the fans. That was the moment when I thought: 'One day I want to do the same.' | 105 |
| Stephen Merchant | The reason I keep talking about a wife and saying the word 'wife' on stage is because it seems a funny word to me. The more you say it, the more it seems to detach from that person and become this sort of abstract thing: that you would set out to find a wife, that it would be an objective like buying a new car. | 105 |
| Terry McAuliffe | I could never drive in a great big car; people like me because I'm a man of the people, a hustler. | 105 |
| William Joyce | So if you're a robot and you're living on this planet, you can do things that you can't do in real life - things that you wished you could do: like fly; like have a car that flies; like have furniture that is alive. | 105 |
| Alex Steffen | If mass media, social isolation in the suburbs, alienating workplaces and long car commutes create a bunker mentality, the Internet does the opposite. | 105 |
| Bode Miller | We should tell our kids to just have fun, participate and not get bent on winning or losing. But every coach, when they say that, they say it tongue in cheek, 'Don't worry about winning': If you win I'll get you ice cream, but if you lose I'm going to pout in the car. | 105 |
| Emerson Fittipaldi | You are going in one second the length of a football field. That means you brain is receiving information from your body what the car is doing physically, bumping, balance, performance. | 105 |
| Jennifer Garner | My mother is a big believer in being responsible for your own happiness. She always talked about finding joy in small moments and insisted that we stop and take in the beauty of an ordinary day. When I stop the car to make my kids really see a sunset, I hear my mother's voice and smile. | 105 |
| Lolo Jones | I am training at such a high level that I actually could eat anything and get by. But as my coach always says, your body is like a car, and food is like your fuel. I am a race car, so I can't just put unleaded fuel in my car. I need that good premium fuel. | 105 |
| Paul Michael Glaser | The car is a character in the piece - I've never liked the car, I submitted to it's objectionable popularity. | 105 |
| Randy Bachman | I listened to it last night for the first time since we started this project. I went out to my car and put it in and went to an empty parking lot and just listened and read the little pamphlet that came with it. After two or three songs I burst into tears. | 105 |
| Ray Comfort | Every song has a composer, every book has an author, every car has a maker, every painting has a painter, and every building has a builder. So it isn't irrational to take this simple logic a little further and say that nature must have had a Maker. It would be irrational to believe that it made itself. | 105 |
| Ritchie Blackmore | I don't put myself on Jeff Beck's level, but I can relate to him when he says he'd rather be working on his car collection than playing the guitar. | 105 |
| Trevor Dunn | I remember when metal was something you really had to search out, and now I hear it on car commercials. | 105 |
| Will Durst | I hate the outdoors. To me the outdoors is where the car is. | 105 |
| Charlie Kimball | Racing is what I live for, and it makes my world go around. Having said that, without the support of the diabetes community, I may not have gotten back into the race car after my diagnosis in October 2007. | 105 |
| David R. Ellis | No, in Lethal Weapon I was a taxi cab driver that Mel jumps in front of the taxi and pulls me out of the car and steals the taxi. Then I did some other indie driving for some of the car sequences. | 105 |
| Dee Dee Ramone | I like the guitar better these days. I like the bass, too, but it's hard to fit a bass amp in a small car. | 105 |
| June Carter Cash | One morning, about four o'clock, I was driving my car just about as fast as I could. I thought, Why am I out this time of night? I was miserable, and it came to me: I'm falling in love with somebody I have no right to fall in love with. | 105 |
| Michael Arrington | I live a fairly simple life, and that didn't change much after I sold TechCrunch in 2010. I didn't buy a new house or even a new car. The one thing I did splurge on was a boat. Nothing too fancy or large. | 105 |
| Allan McNish | My very first car was a grey Alfa Romeo Alfasud, which I got in 1987. But, in our family, all cars were for sale - so they might be there in the morning and were gone at night. In the mid-90s, I joined Porsche and the Carrera was the car, and the Carrera 4S was the one they gave me. As a wee boy from Dumfries, I couldn't believe it. | 105 |
| Daniel Gilbert | Part of us believes the new car is better because it lasts longer. But, in fact, that's the worst thing about the new car. It will stay around to disappoint you, whereas a trip to Europe is over. It evaporates. It has the good sense to go away, and you are left with nothing but a wonderful memory. | 105 |
| Jenson Button | I keep my weight low, although you need to be able to move your weight around the race car to change the balance. I'm 6ft and I'm 70kg so I haven't much fat on me. | 105 |
| Judd Gregg | I think, like everybody else in New Hampshire, when I pull up to fill up my car and I pay $50, I get upset. And I'm wondering if these prices are legitimate. | 105 |
| Serge Schmemann | Buyers of powerful cars place a high premium on the exhaust note, and manufacturers spend a lot of money getting it right. At the same time, high-end cars are expected to filter out the sounds of the mundane world. | 105 |
| Shane Black | I'm ashamed to say this, but I watched every episode of 'Starsky and Hutch' as a kid. I loved that show, but now I think it's stupid - they'd have a car chase for no reason, then Paul Michael Glaser would shoot the car and it would blow up. | 105 |
| Buddy Guy | Why did they keep changing guitars and amplifiers when they were perfect? They did the same things with cars, if you ask me. They forgot how to make them right, because they focused on style and bells and whistles. | 105 |
| Marvin Minsky | Societies need rules that make no sense for individuals. For example, it makes no difference whether a single car drives on the left or on the right. But it makes all the difference when there are many cars! | 105 |
| Eminem | Personally, I just think rap music is the best thing out there, period. If you look at my deck in my car radio, you're always going to find a hip-hop tape; that's all I buy, that's all I live, that's all I listen to, that's all I love. | 106 |
| Erma Bombeck | Onion rings in the car cushions do not improve with time. | 106 |
| Carroll Shelby | I've always been asked, 'What is my favorite car?' and I've always said 'The next one.' | 106 |
| David Suzuki | We're in a giant car heading towards a brick wall and everyone's arguing over where they're going to sit. | 106 |
| Hunter Hayes | I love the practicality of a good car. You know what I mean? And when I say 'practicality,' I mean the complete practicality of a Ferrari 458, a wonderfully fantastic every day car. | 106 |
| Len Goodman | As you get older, things conk out. It's a bit like a car. As long as it's something the mechanics can fix, you can chug on for a few more thousand miles. | 106 |
| Olivia Munn | The word 'geek' today does not mean what it used to mean. A geek isn't the skinny kid with a pocket protector and acne. There can be computer geeks, video game geeks, car geeks, military geeks, and sports geeks. Being a geek just means that you're passionate about something. | 106 |
| Olivier Martinez | I quit after a bad car accident. The thing about boxing is that you can be a star for five or six years, but when you go back to the old life, it's tough. | 106 |
| River Phoenix | I don't want to die in a car accident. When I die it'll be a glorious day. It'll probably be a waterfall. | 106 |
| Sergey Brin | You always hear the phrase, money doesn't buy you happiness. But I always in the back of my mind figured a lot of money will buy you a little bit of happiness. But it's not really true. I got a new car because the old one's lease expired. | 106 |
| Tony Fadell | Well, you can say there is a self driving car. I'm seeing the automation of vehicles. Really, computer-assisted driving. I think that is really interesting to us because we are taking all of the sensors technologies and putting them in cars and making people safer. | 106 |
| Tony Stewart | Get in the race car do what I do then go home. We don't have freedom to do anything anymore. | 106 |
| Adam Carolla | My first car was a motorcycle. | 106 |
| Akio Toyoda | After I joined Toyota, there was a period when I drove more than 200 cars in one year - different types, other companies' cars. I want to be able to tell what distinguishes one car from the next. | 106 |
| Alain Prost | You were not in control You had no visibility: maybe there was a car in front of you, maybe not. | 106 |
| Birdman | I'm a hard worker, and everything with me is, if I work hard, I should get paid for it. Everything with me, I try to symbolize something flashy like jewelry or a car. The rubbing hands is a symbol of hustling, so it goes back to the money. | 106 |
| David Mitchell | A life can get knocked into a new orbit by a car crash, a lottery win or just a bleary-eyed consultant giving bad news in a calm voice. | 106 |
| Dean Winters | When there's not ten feet of snow on the ground, I ride my bike down the streets of New York, and I literally hear two things out of car windows as cabs pass by me: They either yell, 'Hey, dummy,' or 'Hey, Mayhem.' | 106 |
| Eric Bana | I wanted to be a mechanic. When I was 14 I wanted to quit school and go work on my car. But my dad said Son, you shouldn't do that. You should stay in school until your education is finished, and when you're done, don't make your hobby your job. | 106 |
| George C. Wallace | If any demonstrator ever lays down in front of my car, it'll be the last car he'll ever lay down in front of. | 106 |
| Henrik Fisker | When I see a car I've designed going down the street and somebody admiring it, that's a nice feeling. | 106 |
| James Hillman | The culture is going into a psychological depression. We are concerned about our place in the world, about being competitive: Will my children have as much as I have? Will I ever own my own home? How can I pay for a new car? Are immigrants taking away my white world? | 106 |
| Joe Frazier | Had my own car at twelve years old. Left school in the tenth grade. Married when I was sixteen. Ain't hard to figure out; I was a man at a very young age. | 106 |
| Lewis Hamilton | I enjoy trying to develop a car and Mercedes are one of the biggest car manufacturers in the world. | 106 |
| Nigel Mansell | I've tried everything other than jumping out of a plane, but nothing gives you an adrenaline rush like racing a car. | 106 |
| Russell Baker | When it comes to cars, only two varieties of people are possible - cowards and fools. | 106 |
| Seann William Scott | We don't have any CGI with any of the car stuff. I think it's a real experience when you see this car going through really fast really wild and you see me driving a lot of the times and also a big chase in downtown Atlanta. It's just incredible. | 106 |
| Terry Wogan | I've never wanted to drive a car fast for the sake of it. I mean, I like nice cars. I've got the Bentley, I've had a Lotus, I've had a Rolls-Royce and a few Jaguars, including an E-type. But I'm not somebody for driving tremendously fast. | 106 |
| Al Jarreau | These songs are old friends I have entertained myself with when I'm washing the dishes, driving to the store and walking down the aisles. The ones that you sing when you're driving in the car and as a singer you always go back to them. | 106 |
| Michael Gambon | I'm an anorak. I've always been an obsessive collector of things. Richard Briers collects stamps. I collect cars and guns, which are much more expensive, and much more difficult to store. | 106 |
| Michelle Rodriguez | Going to car racing school was phenomenal. | 106 |
| Neil Harbisson | It's strange that we create tech and then we apply it to machines, when we could apply it to ourselves. Cars can now detect if something is behind them, but we don't have this ability. Why are we applying such a simple sense to a car when we could apply it to ourselves? | 106 |
| Nelson Piquet | I am really looking forward to driving another of my father's car at the show in Rotterdam. | 106 |
| David R. Ellis | So then I started doing a lot of episodic TV, just car chases or helicopter chases or whatever. | 106 |
| Jay Inslee | Back in the mid-1970s, we adopted some fairly ambitious goals to improve efficiency of our cars. What did we get? We got a tremendous boost in efficiency. | 106 |
| Robbie Coltrane | See, what you're meant to do when you have a mid-life crisis is buy a fast car, aren't you? Well, I've always had fast cars. It's not that. It's the fear that you're past your best. It's the fear that the stuff you've done in the past is your best work. | 106 |
| Ryan Stiles | I'd rather drive the yellow brick road, you wouldn't happen to know of a rental car place around. | 106 |
| Tom Holt | Luck, like a Russian car, generally only works if you push it. | 106 |
| Triple H | Getting ready to wrestle is like getting ready for a car crash. Getting ready to work with Brock Lesnar is like knowing you're going to get hit by a bus and the bus is going to back over you. If I'm going to work 'WrestleMania,' 16 weeks out I have to start training like I'm Mayweather getting ready for a fight. | 106 |
| Brian Chesky | The American dream, what we were taught was, grow up, own a car, own a house. I think that dream's completely changing. We were taught to keep up with the Joneses. Now we're sharing with the Joneses. | 106 |
| Dale Archer | We put more emphasis on who can drive a car than on who can be a parent. And I think there ought to be mandatory parenting classes starting in high school, and you should have to have a license to be able to be a parent to explain that you don't give alcohol to kids. | 106 |
| Jaime Lerner | A car is like a mother-in-law - if you let it, it will rule your life. | 106 |
| James Corden | The only thing I know is that no one ever sat in a therapist's or a psychiatrist's room saying, 'My parents just loved me too much.' The only thing you can do is love them and be around. Kids don't really care what your car is like or how big their house is. All they really care about is that you are around. | 106 |
| Rebecca Mader | My first car was in 2006 when I got on my first TV show - a BMW 328i2 four-door sedan in slate grey. That was a great day, that was. | 106 |
| Mark Barrowcliffe | People generally complain that they're overburdened by responsibilities, forgetting that they chose to have those responsibilities. No one makes you work like a dog in order to live in a nice house, put your kids in nice schools, drive a smart car and go on exotic foreign holidays. It's up to you. | 106 |
| Jim Bakker | They put chains on me; they chained my waist, my legs. Put me in the back of a squad car, and I literally blacked out. I didn't even - there's whole pieces missing. | 106 |
| Jim Pattison | In my job, I have many operations, so I tend to use time in my car to think. I get in the car after work and drive all night -11 hours, Vancouver to Banff. | 106 |
| Justin Chon | When it comes to romance, I believe in keeping it simple. With my last girlfriend, we were on our way to our favorite restaurant when I pretended that the car was crappin' out. I asked her to get out and check if smoke was coming from the exhaust. When she did, I popped the trunk and inside were six dozen roses and a stuffed bear. | 106 |
| Mitch Hedberg | I know a lot about cars, man. I can look at any car's headlights and tell you exactly which way it's coming. | 107 |
| P. J. O'Rourke | Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. | 107 |
| Brad Pitt | I grew up in Oklahoma and Missouri, and I just loved film. My folks would take us to the drive-in on summer nights, and we'd sit on the hood of the car. I just had this profound love for storytelling. | 107 |
| Gary Oldman | I was quiet, a loner. I was one of those children where, if you put me in a room and gave me some crayons and a pencils, you wouldn't hear from me for nine straight hours. And I was always drawing racing cars and rockets and spaceships and planes, things that were very fast that would take me away. | 107 |
| Henry Kravis | I was an economics major in college, and every summer after school, I would drive my car from California, from Claremont men's college at the time, to New York. And I worked on Wall Street. | 107 |
| Jim Harrison | Everybody has a gun in their car in Detroit. | 107 |
| Larry the Cable Guy | What a piece of garbage this smart car is. There's a commercial - the smart car has zero percent interest for six years. Well, good, I got zero percent in six years in buying this smart car. I'll tell you that much. I mean, it's ridiculous. My buddy has a smart car, totaled it. He hit a deer tick. | 107 |
| Murray Walker | There's nothing wrong with the car except that it's on fire. | 107 |
| Nicholas Kristof | Maybe our best family trip started at Victoria Falls, which drenches you with spray and is so vast that it makes Niagara Falls seem like a backyard creek. Then we rented a car and made our way to Hwange National Park, which was empty of people but crowded with zebras, giraffes, elephants and more. | 107 |
| Nick Cannon | I was 16 years old, driving to LA, and sleeping in my car, just trying to make it happen. | 107 |
| Om Puri | The fact is I like Mumbai less and less. My son says, 'Baba, let's go for a drive', and I tell him, 'Where's the fun of a drive in this place?' You get caught in a million traffic jams, and you spend time cooped in your car with all that mad cacophony around you. | 107 |
| Peter Benchley | A human being is still more likely to die of a bee sting, snake bite or, Lord knows, automobile accident than by shark attack. We do not execute the perpretrators of death by car. We should not butcher an animal for an inadvertent homicide. | 107 |
| Quincy Jones | I was raised in Chicago and I guess that was one of the special breeding grounds for gangsters of all colors. That was the Detroit of the gangster world. The car industry was thugs. | 107 |
| Roger Staubach | At a car dealership, the person who sells the car is the hero, and also gets the commission. But if the mechanics don't service that car well, the customer won't return. | 107 |
| Sebastian Thrun | Honestly, the average American spends about 52 minutes a day in commute traffic. And as much as I love driving my car and many people like driving their car, commuting has never been fun for me. | 107 |
| Valentino Rossi | If I test the car for a year I can be quite competitive the next season. | 107 |
| Victoria Wood | I once went to one of those parties where everyone throws their car keys into the middle of the room. I don't know who got my moped, but I drove that Peugeot for years. | 107 |
| Ayelet Waldman | By the time the children go to bed, I am as drained as any mother who has spent her day working, car pooling, building Lego castles and shopping for the precisely correct soccer cleat. | 107 |
| Bill Engvall | I came out of the mall one day, and a guy was standing there with a coat hanger in his window, and I couldn't stop myself. I asked the stupid question. 'You lock your keys in the car?' 'Nope, just washed it, gonna hang it up to dry.' | 107 |
| E. Joseph Cossman | Drive-in banks were established so most of the cars today could see their real owners. | 107 |
| Luc Montagnier | I am very puzzled by the fact that young people are getting infected again. They don't take precautions despite an enormous amount of information. It's like riding a race car at 200 kilometers an hour. Some people like the risk. | 107 |
| Ludacris | I love everything from old-school cars to whatever the latest muscle or luxury vehicles are. | 107 |
| Merle Haggard | When I grew up there wasn't air-conditioning or anything of that nature, and this old car had a wall thickness of about ten inches. So we had a little warmer house in the winter and a little cooler in the summer. | 107 |
| Richard Hammond | My first car was a 1976 Toyota Corolla Liftback in red, like the one in 'The Blues Brothers.' I painted a Union Jack on the roof. I was absolutely in love with it until I destroyed it, which broke my heart! | 107 |
| Bibhu Mohapatra | My engineer dad is where my technical acumen comes from. I remember him taking me to the factories to see how what works. Often he used to open up his motorbike to fix things and I saw how the wheels worked. His car used to be open for dissection very regularly. All this taught me and inspired me to look beyond what I could see on the skin. | 107 |
| Devon Sawa | I want do some kind of action movie, car chases and explosions. | 107 |
| Dries van Noten | When I have to do something fast, I wear the most unflattering rubber pants over my pants and a big easy sweater. I can get on my knees in the garden in whatever condition, and when I'm done, I can take it off, get in the car, and drive to the office. It's the most practical thing. | 107 |
| Luca Cordero di Montezemolo | We don't sell a car, we sell a dream. We are Italy's national team. There are many great soccer teams in our country, but there is only one Ferrari. | 107 |
| Risa Lavizzo-Mourey | It isn't unusual to see children climb into a car every morning to be ferried to the front door of a school that's just a few blocks away. | 107 |
| St. Vincent | My dad used to love Steely Dan, the Stones, Jethro Tull and all that. There was always Steely Dan going in my dad's car, but I remember The Royal Scam in particular because it has 'Kid Charlemagne' on it. | 107 |
| Sue Townsend | Being poor with three small children is terrifying. You can't make any plans. You know you're not going on holiday, ever. There's no way you could ever afford driving lessons or a car. And the guilt I used to feel: they had holes in their shoes, and at one point, I had to send them to school wearing Wellingtons when the sun was shining. | 107 |
| Jared Padalecki | Whenever I drive under a yellow light, I always kiss my finger and tap it on the roof of the car. | 107 |
| John Hawkes | The only thing I do on a computer is play Texas Hold 'Em, really. Obviously my cell phone is a computer. My car is a computer. I'm on computers every day without actively seeking them out. | 107 |
| Rick Mercer | On my job I end up jumping out of planes. Last week I got in an 18-wheeler and drove down a runway onto a skid track. The week before that they put me in a car and sunk me to the bottom of a lake to see if I could escape without an oxygen tank. | 107 |
| Allan McNish | It was not until I started racing for car manufacturers that I found a car I could really get attached to. I am the son of a car dealer, so up until then, cars just came and went. | 107 |
| Doris Roberts | You can't show me an ad on TV with hard bodies and say I have to buy that car. You have to tell me why that car is better and safer than another car. | 107 |
| Jenson Button | In the car and in front of the camera I tend to be very calm but behind the scenes I can get fired up and passionate, I just don't see the need to shout my mouth off in public. | 107 |
| Mark-Paul Gosselaar | Some people say it might be good for your career to die and then come back again. I have died many ways, car crashes, motorcycle crashes, etc. But, I am still alive. | 107 |
| Rosario Dawson | All the times being like, 'Who rented this car and why are we going to this place?' You take the easy route and go, 'Oh, thanks for the champagne. I'll have another.' | 107 |
| Jack Lemmon | Stay humble. Always answer your phone - no matter who else is in the car. | 107 |
| Juan Manuel Fangio | The driver of a racing car is a component. When I first began, I used to grip the steering wheel firmly, and I changed gear so hard that I damaged my hand. | 107 |
| Carroll Shelby | The Cobra is my personal favorite car. The original 289 Cobra is the car I respect the most. I like to drive the 289 better than the 427. | 108 |
| Gary Numan | I've got Asperger's syndrome and I'm not a very good people person, so I've always been more comfortable around machinery. Not in a weird way - I don't want to marry my car or anything stupid like that! | 108 |
| Mario Andretti | If a neighbor is killed in a car accident, do you sell your car and stop driving? | 108 |
| Nick Hanauer | I have a 15-year-old boy, and we are about to give him car keys, which seems like an act of insanity when you know what you know about 15-year-old boy behavior. But in 2018, we'll have self-driving cars, and it will be so much better. My son may be the last generation of kids who learns to drive. | 108 |
| Pico Iyer | In Japan, I live in a little neighborhood in the middle of nowhere. I don't have a bicycle or a car or anything, so my only movement is within the boundaries of my feet. I feel there's a need for that kind of conscientious objection to the momentum of the world. | 108 |
| Ralph Nader | John D. Rockefeller wanted to dominate oil, but Microsoft wants it all, you name it: cable, media, banking, car dealerships. | 108 |
| Adam Carolla | I think we're getting to the point where everyone's getting fat and everyone's getting allergic, or claims to be allergic to something and people can't walk from their front door to their car without a bottle of water in their hand because they have to hydrate every three and half steps. | 108 |
| Casey Wilson | My dad always said that 90 percent of marital problems could be solved by getting your blood sugar up, and he's right! So I would say pick a partner who's forgiving when you have low blood sugar and threaten to drive your car through your shared home. | 108 |
| Chris O'Donnell | I think I'm pretty smart on what I spend my money on. I still don't have a new car, I drive my old car that I've had forever. But I bought a house in downtown Chicago. | 108 |
| Hakeem Olajuwon | I always keep a ball in the car. You never know. | 108 |
| Nick Mason | I was brought up in a car family, my dad loved cars and I was taught the art of making an Austin 7 operate. | 108 |
| Patsy Cline | I recorded a song called, I Fall to Pieces, and I was in a car wreck. Now I'm worried because I have a brand-new record, and it's called Crazy! | 108 |
| Sebastian Vettel | Simply racing a Formula 1 car is an achievement. | 108 |
| Wilson Greatbatch | When you buy a gallon of gas, over 60 percent of the energy you pay for goes out the radiator in the form of waste heat? That's why you have a radiator in your car in the first place. | 108 |
| Alex Steffen | The Internet has made some phenomenal breakthroughs that are still only poorly understood in terms of changing people's ideas of us and them. If mass media, social isolation in the suburbs, alienating workplaces and long car commutes create a bunker mentality, the Internet does the opposite. | 108 |
| Andy Partridge | It was in San Diego and I was onstage and couldn't remember how to play the guitar properly. I was in terrible pain and my nervous system was just going wild, like somebody had just run a car over me. | 108 |
| Chris Isaak | I hate modern car radios. In my car, I don't even have a push-button radio. It's just got a dial and two knobs. Just AM. One knob makes it louder, and one knob changes the station. When you're driving, that's all I want. | 108 |
| Glenn Danzig | In Japan, they have TV sets in cars right now, where you can punch up traffic routes, weather, everything! You can get Internet access already in cars in Japan, so within the next 2 to 3 years it's gonna be so crazy! | 108 |
| Rosanne Cash | I am so sick of reading about another car bomb, another suicide bomber, another 10, 20, 30, 70, 100 people dead in a day, both Americans and Iraqis. | 108 |
| Sally Phillips | I think everyone is forgetting what plastic surgery is for - if you have a face-eating tumour, lose a breast or are involved in a car accident, then it's a good idea. | 108 |
| Sonakshi Sinha | I never did films for the money or because I needed to buy a house or car. I do it because I love my job. | 108 |
| Taylor Dayne | Well, honey, I had the million dollar houses, I had the car, I had the horse, I had the barn; I had everything. Was I set free? I didn't even know what that meant. | 108 |
| Adam Osborne | I liken myself to Henry Ford and the auto industry, I give you 90 percent of what most people need. | 108 |
| Alison Krauss | That's what I love. Not being interrupted, sitting in a car by myself and listening to music in the rain. There are so many great songs yet to sing. | 108 |
| Daniel Bruhl | I have one car that works; it's fast and safe: an Audi 5. And I have two old cars that never work: an old Peugeot convertible, and an Alfa Romeo Giulia. | 108 |
| James Belushi | Accidents happen, whether they're car accidents, friendly fire, drug overdoses. Accidents happen, and they're tragic. It's like a bomb that goes off and pieces of shrapnel rip into the flesh of the family. It's the families that need the compassion, because everywhere they walk, every day, someone reminds them of their loss. | 108 |
| Regina Spektor | I'm like, 'Would you be the person in the room that would boo when Dylan went electric? I know I wouldn't. Or are you the person that left The Beatles after 'She Loves You,' or 'Drive My Car?' You weren't on board for 'Revolution 9' or 'Day In The Life,' were you?' | 108 |
| Samantha Barks | The red carpet is kind of a surreal experience. There's nothing normal about it, so for me the most important thing is to maintain some normality right until the point you get out of the car. | 108 |
| Aaron Tveit | I had an acting teacher tell me once that if you're playing a car salesman, you don't want to be an OK car salesman, you want to play the best car salesman. | 108 |
| Jenson Button | A lot of people think Formula One isn't a sport because everyone drives a car when they go to work in the morning. But we're pulling up to six G on a corner or during breaking, which is almost like being a fighter pilot. So we have to do a lot of work on our neck muscles. | 108 |
| Melissa Joan Hart | I'm calling from my car, I'm sorry, I'm like running around like crazy. | 108 |
| Rip Torn | I've got two old Volvos, two old Subarus, and an old Ford Ranger. If you've got an old car, you've gotta have at least several old cars, 'cause one's always gonna be in the garage. | 108 |
| Dorothy Kilgallen | Doorman - a genius who can open the door of your car with one hand, help you in with the other, and still have one left for the tip. | 108 |
| John Searle | My car and my adding machine understand nothing: they are not in that line of business. | 108 |
| John Moody | In the United States three new methods of transportation made their appearance at almost the same time - the steamboat, the canal boat, and the rail car. | 108 |
| Jimmy Smits | I've been in California for about 15 years now. You're always in your car and insulated. I miss New York so much. | 108 |
| Steve Harvey | You can take lessons to become almost anything: flying lessons, piano lessons, skydiving lessons, acting lessons, race car driving lessons, singing lessons. But there's no class for comedy. You have to be born with it. God has to give you this gift. | 109 |
| Ayrton Senna | I was already on pole, then by half a second and then one second and I just kept going. Suddenly I was nearly two seconds faster than anybody else, including my team mate with the same car. | 109 |
| Adlai E. Stevenson | Freedom is not an ideal, it is not even a protection, if it means nothing more than freedom to stagnate, to live without dreams, to have no greater aim than a second car and another television set. | 109 |
| Bikram Choudhury | You cannot drive the car if you do not have a driver's license. You cannot do brain surgery if you are not a brain surgeon. You cannot even do a massage if you don't have a license. | 109 |
| Danica Patrick | On Memorial Day, I was out floating on Lake Norman and came across Denny Hamlin. We struck up a conversation, and one of the first things we were talking about was how much it helped him when he started racing the Cup car and how much it helped his Nationwide program. | 109 |
| Dr. Dre | Before now, I've always taken my mixes out to the car and listened to them in the parking lot. I still do that, but more so now I'm listening to it on the Beat box, and I think people should give it at least a listen and check it out and see what it is. | 109 |
| Ian Frazier | When I go to Indian reservations in the West, and especially to the Pine Ridge Reservation, I sometimes feel unsure where to put my foot when I open the car door. The very ground is different from where I usually stand. There are fewer curbs, fewer sidewalks, and almost no street signs, mailboxes, or leashed dogs. | 109 |
| Kevin McCloud | Building a house from scratch in the middle of a field is a bit like building a prototype car. As with all prototypes, if you're building a car you usually have the luxury of producing several prototypes before you arrive at the production line version - so the opportunity for changing things is quite rich. | 109 |
| Laurence J. Peter | Going to church doesn't make you any more a Christian than going to the garage makes you a car. | 109 |
| Mario Andretti | A racing car is an animal with a thousand adjustments. | 109 |
| Paloma Picasso | I think, aesthetically, car design is so interesting - the dashboards, the steering wheels, and the beauty of the mechanics. I don't know how any of it works, I don't want to know, but it's inspirational. | 109 |
| Paul Walker | I'm a crazy car guy. I've got an airplane hangar full of cars. | 109 |
| Walter Mosley | I think that people don't know how to do anything anymore. My father was a janitor. He could take a car apart and put it back together. He could build a house in the back yard. Today, if you ask people what they know, they say, 'I know how to hire someone.' | 109 |
| Alain Prost | I don't like to go over curbs, because I don't want to be hard on the car. | 109 |
| Frances McDormand | Most women's pictures are as boring and as formulaic as men's pictures. In place of a car chase or a battle scene, what you get is an extreme closeup of a woman breaking down. | 109 |
| Grandmaster Flash | I went to junkyards, abandoned car lots. I asked supermarkets for the big jugs they put pig guts in, to make cabinets for my bass speakers. | 109 |
| Jim Bishop | When you read about a car crash in which two or three youngsters are killed, do you pause to dwell on the amount of love and treasure and patience parents poured into bodies no longer suitable for open caskets? | 109 |
| Lauren Graham | Some people think my father was a spy, because of working for that government agency in Vietnam, but he can't find his car keys, much less keep a national secret. | 109 |
| Maurice Gibb | I think we have to act like stars because it is expected of us. So we drive our big cars and live in our smart houses. | 109 |
| Patti Stanger | I dated a guy and he liked me but I didn't like him. I went through his wardrobe and cleaned out his house and got him to get a new car. He said to me, 'If I give you $10,000, will you find me my wife because I want someone like you?' And within a year, he got married. That was the first match that led to me leaving my corporate job. | 109 |
| Paul Arden | We are all advertising, all of the time. If you want to sell your car, what do you do? You clean and polish it and make it the best you can. Some people bake bread when they are trying to sell their house because the smell adds a friendly feeling. Even the priest, with all his or her fervour, is advertising God. Everybody is selling. | 109 |
| Richard Hammond | I've been in a car three or four times when it filled with water and it's not a comfortable feeling. | 109 |
| Roger Goodell | The way you continue to be a successful business is you don't wait for the car to go off the cliff. You have to manage yourself. And make sure you do it in the right way so you are not making decisions in crisis. | 109 |
| Sebastian Vettel | It's a tricky place, especially the last sector. I wasn't happy in practice. I wasn't happy with the car and I wasn't happy with myself. But I always thought there was more in the car. | 109 |
| Sophia Amoruso | I didn't buy the Porsche for status. I hate that, and it's actually kind of goofy now because in L.A., a Porsche is like a Honda. It was just that I could pay that much money for a car and drive it off the lot. | 109 |
| Aimee Mann | I have a 6-year-old, and his thing is to turn on Radio Disney in the car, and I get such an allergic reaction to listening to that music and the context into which it falls. I'm really working on him about that. | 109 |
| Dani Shapiro | My dad died when I was 23. His death was sudden and shocking - the result of a car crash - and I never got to say goodbye. | 109 |
| Godfrey Reggio | Now having said that, I realize that releasing a film in the real world is like trying to get General Motors to release a handmade car. | 109 |
| Romain Grosjean | Monaco is quite a specialist track, and it is very difficult to say if a car will be suited to it or not. It's bumpy on the straights, and it's a very low-grip surface. All these things mean that you never know what to expect. | 109 |
| Suresh Raina | I've always wanted to buy a sports car. After the England series, I went up to my dad and said that I wanted to buy a sports car and got his consent. On his birthday, I surprised him by bringing it home. It's a Porsche Boxter Limited Edition, and my family was thrilled to see it. | 109 |
| Charlie Kimball | People ask how hard it can be sitting down for work during a 500-mile race? Well, without power steering or power brakes, holding onto 650 horses in a car that has nearly 3,000 pounds of downforce and can produce up to 4Gs vertically and laterally can be extremely tough - even sitting down. | 109 |
| Jess Walter | I think most Hollywood meetings are silly and I truly despise pitching. It's insane to expect someone to come in and tell you the story before they've written it, and buying an idea from someone who can explain it rather than write it is like choosing a mechanic based on his ability to draw a picture of your car's problem. | 109 |
| Ariel Gore | I always do like seeing other people dance in their cars. It's one of the things that makes me happy. | 109 |
| Maria Bartiromo | If you or me go to the gas station to fill up our car and it costs us much more than we expected, it will zap our discretionary income. We won't have the extra money to buy that washing machine or new winter coat-all big ticket items that are important to economic growth. | 109 |
| Rick Yune | That's when it really came together for me that I was in a Bond film, to have my own spy car! | 109 |
| Serge Schmemann | What Paris has done right is to make it awful to get around by car and awfully easy to get around by public transportation or by bike. | 109 |
| Sherman Austin | When they searched my car, they said that they found a gasoline canister and I think duct tape. Who wouldn't have a gasoline canister on them when driving 3,000 miles across country? | 109 |
| Theodore Roosevelt | A man who has never gone to school may steal from a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad. | 110 |
| Jack Kerouac | Whither goest thou, America, in thy shiny car in the night? | 110 |
| Brian Tracy | Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment, you perform better when your thoughts, feelings, emotions, goals, and values are in balance. | 110 |
| Colin Farrell | Anything that's different from your own realm of experience as a human being, whether it's driving a car or a boat, or using guns, anything that separates you from yourself and leads you more towards this character's existence is a big help. | 110 |
| Enzo Ferrari | The fact is I don't drive just to get from A to B. I enjoy feeling the car's reactions, becoming part of it. | 110 |
| Gary Johnson | That's the first sign you know you're a Libertarian. You see the red light. You stop. You realize that there's not a car in sight. And you put your foot on the gas. | 110 |
| Hugh Jackman | To this day, I am the least materialistic person I know, because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car. The only reason I wanted to make money as an actor was because I'm passionate about food! | 110 |
| Ingvar Kamprad | Ikea people do not drive flashy cars or stay at luxury hotels. | 110 |
| Jill Scott | Heartbreak was the impetus to me writing poems and music in the first place. Over the years, I had my heart broken so badly that if I didn't find a way to get all the pain out, I was going to lose my mind. I was crazy! Like, wanting to slash tires and smash car windows. Crazy! I was so hurt that I had to write. | 110 |
| NeNe Leakes | I'm a big potato chip girl. I don't like chocolate and cakes and all that, but I have to have my potato chips. I've got bags in the back of my car right now! But I never beat myself up about it, because, look: You can't give up every damn thing. You need something in your life that you like just because you like it! | 110 |
| Rita Rudner | To attract men, I wear a perfume called 'New Car Interior.' | 110 |
| Shaquille O'Neal | I love race car drivers, I love gymnastics, I love UFC, I love police officers, I love firefighters. I just try to give them the same enjoyment they give me. | 110 |
| Tom Petty | The energy of the crowd is insane. Twenty thousand people. It's the biggest jolt of adrenaline. It's very hard to explain. You know the old story about the woman lifting the car off her kid? It's in that realm. You can actually hurt yourself and not know it. | 110 |
| Tommy Cooper | So I was getting into my car, and this bloke says to me 'Can you give me a lift?' I said 'Sure, you look great, the world's your oyster, go for it.' | 110 |
| Ken Jennings | If I start outsourcing all my navigation to a little talking box in my car, I'm sort of screwed. I'm going to lose my car in the parking lot every single time. | 110 |
| Lou Doillon | I'm in my father's car at age 9 or 10 crying to Leonard Cohen's 'Famous Blue Raincoat,' thinking that you could write nearly a love letter to a man who betrayed you by having an affair with your wife. I was thinking how wonderful and pure music can be for explaining situations. | 110 |
| Martin McGuinness | The fact is that a car used by Gerry Adams and myself during the course of the Mitchell review was bugged by elements within British military intelligence. | 110 |
| Nigel Mansell | The preparation, commitment and desire to win will be no less than the last time I drove a grand prix car in anger. | 110 |
| Candice Olson | When I'm doing kitchen planning as well as bathroom design, I try to walk through the day with the homeowner. If we're talking about a kitchen, it will be: So, we are walking in with the groceries. When we are taking them out of the car, where will they go? What is the distance to fridge, to pantry? | 110 |
| Christian Kane | I grew up with the Highwaymen, which was Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and Kris Kristofferson. Mom and Dad rode rodeo, so country music was always in the house and the car. They threw in some Dolly Parton, too. | 110 |
| Emerson Fittipaldi | You have to visualize a second or two ahead of your car what line you are taking, what you are going to do, before you get there because it comes too fast. | 110 |
| Holland Roden | I bought a car, but not just any car; I bought a Volvo, which was the safest on the road at the time. It's not any more, so I upgraded to the Mercedes. | 110 |
| Jennifer Grey | I'd had a really bad car accident years ago, and basically, the ligaments in the back of my neck were ripped, and I'd never addressed that. | 110 |
| Marion Barry | I promise you a police car on every sidewalk. | 110 |
| Miranda Cosgrove | I'm more into, like, colour than, like, the type of car and stuff. I don't know much about cars, so I'm just more into picking the right color. | 110 |
| Stone Gossard | A lot of fun stuff happens when you go out on a bike compared to when you're in a car. You're more in the environment. It's enjoyable. Even when It's raining It's still fun. | 110 |
| Donal Logue | It was all that stuff about taking your parents' car when you're 13, sneaking booze into rock shows and ditching school with your friends. I could relate to that as a former teenager, rather than as a present parent. | 110 |
| Julian Clary | I live in a kind of gay bubble. I live in a gay house, I drive a gay car. I eat gay food. | 110 |
| Sergio Aragones | Anyone can write a story based on the kind of horror where you see a guy in car and then there's the bad guy in the back seat. It's infantile to rely on that for telling a story. That's like going to bed and thinking there's a monster under your bed. It's silly. | 110 |
| Aaron Neville | I really like listening to music in my car. | 110 |
| Rebecca Pidgeon | When I first drove my car down Sunset Strip, I nearly crashed my car gazing at the monolithic ads of various celebrities. They are bigger than King Kong, and more frightening. | 110 |
| Roman Polanski | In Paris, one is always reminded of being a foreigner. If you park your car wrong, it is not the fact that it's on the sidewalk that matters, but the fact that you speak with an accent. | 110 |
| Jacky Ickx | In the end I didn't get a top car any more. I had no toughness left. That was the reality. | 110 |
| Dan Brown | There's a lot of stress... but once you get in the car, all that goes out the window. | 111 |
| Frederica Mathewes-Green | Of the seven deadly sins, anger has long been the one with the best box of costumes. When the guy in the next car rages at you, he's dangerous. When you rage at him, you're just. We can usually recognize the results of anger, especially in others, as destructive and evil. | 111 |
| Kesha | You don't have to carry a designer bag that costs more than a car to look cool. | 111 |
| Marc Andreessen | People are so bad at driving cars that computers don't have to be that good to be much better. Any time you stand in line at the D.M.V. and look around, you're like, Oh, my God, I wish all these people were replaced by computer drivers. | 111 |
| Murray Walker | I'm a car fanatic and each morning I wake up with a smile on my face, whether I'm commentating on the Formula One or at Silver Hatch racetrack in Roary the Racing Car. | 111 |
| Patrick Stewart | Having played many roles of scientific intellect I do have an empathy for that world. It's been hard on me because flying the Enterprise for seven years in Star Trek and sitting in Cerebro in X-men has led people to believe that I know what I'm talking about. But I'm still trying to work out how to operate the air conditioning unit on my car. | 111 |
| Paul Theroux | People say writing is really hard. That's very unfair to those who are doing real jobs. People who work in the fields or fix roofs, engineers, or car mechanics. I think lying on your back working under an oily car, that's a job. | 111 |
| Rowan Atkinson | I enjoy racing historic motorcars from the '50s and '60s. The seed of my interest was planted when I was about 12 years old and took over my mother's Morris Minor. I drove it around my father's farm. But my favorite car is still a McLaren F1, which I have had for 10 years. | 111 |
| Tim Allen | In the last three years of racing I've met as many women fans as men fans, and in NASCAR it's the same thing. My wife loves cars, but the difference is she doesn't have 20 years of understanding the background of them. She basically drives them and uses her gut feelings as to which is best. | 111 |
| Akio Toyoda | I ride many different cars. Let's say I would drive 200 different vehicles in a year, so it's rather difficult to say which car or what car I ride. I love cars. | 111 |
| Anna Deavere Smith | Racism has been for everyone like a horrible, tragic car crash, and we've all been heavily sedated from it. If we don't come into consciousness of this tragedy, there's going to be a violent awakening we don't want. The question is, can we wake up? | 111 |
| Eric Bana | I've always been attracted to cars, and driving is a completely measurable experience: if you qualify last on the grid, you're the slowest, and if you qualify first on the grid, you're the fastest. So no one can say you're slow if you're fast and no one can say you're fast if you're slow. | 111 |
| Jane Elliot | I'm not curing cancer or running a small county. I haven't developed a greener car. I just play act. And if I can bring people a moment of fun and relief in their lives, well, that's the win. | 111 |
| Sundar Pichai | We need to bring Android and Chrome to every screen that matters for users, which is why we focused on phone, wearables, car, television, laptops, and even your workplace. | 111 |
| Linwood Barclay | Al Gore, the former vice-president of the United States, lives in a mansion that uses more electricity than the average family's bungalow! David Suzuki rides on a bus that uses more fuel than a Smart car to get across Canada! Oh my God! And this is just the tip of the vanishing iceberg! | 111 |
| Charlie Kimball | You don't get a mix of ovals and road/street course racing with this level of competition and speed anywhere other than Indy Car, and I think that's why it has remained a popular choice for so many young drivers. | 111 |
| David Millar | The first time I rode a bike I was four or five. I crashed into the back of a car. | 111 |
| Jaime Lerner | I always try to say, 'If you want to help the environment, try to do just two things. One, use less of your car. Second, separate your garbage.' | 111 |
| Jenson Button | We go through the whole season working on next season's car and developing the car and making sure we fit in the car and all that sort of stuff. And we obviously give ideas of what we would hope next year's car would have even if it's small things like buttons on the steering wheel and different positions and whatever. | 111 |
| Jonny Greenwood | I don't mind when people are telling me about their 1971 Firebird, but it's the same thing as people telling me about their car or something. It's fine if you have an interest. By talking with me, though, you could be interviewing a novelist about guitars. It's the same thing, except I don't write that well either. | 111 |
| John Schneider | Some people treat seeing me as if they just won a car on 'The Price is Right.' The feet get going, and the hands start flapping, and it's really quite amazing. It's a little scary: you can't have more than two or three of them at the same time because someone might get hurt. But it's great fun. | 111 |
| John Shelton Reed | I think there's a suspicion in the South of people putting on airs. You see it in most successful Southern politicians, but you also see it in someone like Richard Petty, who may be a multimillionaire stock car driver, but he's also beloved because he has a nice self-deprecatory way about him. | 111 |
| Michael Jackson | I rememeber one time we were getting ready to go to South America and everything was packed up and in the car ready to go and I hid and I was crying because I really did not want to go, I wanted to play. I did not want to go. | 112 |
| Bill Burr | If I can sell out clubs and theaters and play dirtbags in movies, and get blown up in a car or get the crap beat out of me in a movie, that's good for me; I'm good. | 112 |
| Billy Connolly | Once you become successful, people know where you live, the type of house you live in, the kind of car you drive, the clothes you wear, and so it would be patronising to go and talk like a welder. Welding's a mystery to me now. You can't go back, your life changes every day. | 112 |
| Casey Neistat | The idea that somebody would go to my YouTube channel and want to watch movies and then be subjected to some terrible car commercial - I don't like that. | 112 |
| Ice T | I'm just disillusioned with the hip-hop sound right now. It's too materialistic. You know, I'm the kind of guy ... I can't do that. If you track my movement, you'll never see a picture of me with any girl that wasn't mine, or my own car. My jewelry, my clothes. What kind of gangsta rapper has a stylist? A stylist?! | 112 |
| Jimmie Johnson | Since I was kid, what's drawn me to racing is the feeling inside of me, the passion I have for the sport, the feeling I have while competing and doing what I do in a car, on a bike, whatever it's been. | 112 |
| Ratan Tata | I have two or three cars that I like, but today, Ferrari would be the best car I have driven in terms of being an impressive car. | 112 |
| Reese Witherspoon | When a police officer tells you to stay in the car, you stay in the car. | 112 |
| Shakuntala Devi | I don't even possess a car. I ride in auto-rickshaws because I like to be a part of the masses. I don't want to single myself out as someone up and above. | 112 |
| Tom Hodgkinson | When walking, you see things that you miss in a motor car or on the train. You give your mind space to ponder. | 112 |
| Tony Stewart | I'm not going to just stop doing it because I got hurt once. People get hurt in car wrecks every day, and they don't stop driving the car the rest of their life to work. It's my passion. It's what I want to do with my life. It's a part of what I do. | 112 |
| Coolio | Because I'm a young black man driving a really nice, expensive car, I sometimes get harassed when I'm rolling through a ghetto neighbourhood. | 112 |
| Ludacris | I've always had an affinity and a passion for cars and that whole car culture. | 112 |
| Maria Semple | I quickly realized that shopping on Amazon had made the idea of parking my car and going into a store feel like an outrageous imposition on my time and good nature. | 112 |
| Michael Schumacher | People get excited around me and behave differently than they would normally. I don't feel different from anyone else, except that I drive a racing car round in circles faster than somebody else. | 112 |
| Nancy Cartwright | Since September 11, security has been increased everywhere, and we have new IDs to get on to the Fox lot. I drove to the security gate, but realized I'd left my ID in my other car. I just broke into that voice - 'Hey, man, I'm Bart Simpson. Who else sounds like this?' The guard waved me through. | 112 |
| Nick Mason | When you're in the car, how well you do is down to you and you alone-no band, no management, no marketing. | 112 |
| Patsy Cline | Boys, they can't take my refrigerator now. They'll never get my car now. I paid cash for 'em and they're mine, and I'm keepin' 'em! | 112 |
| Richard Hammond | The easiest and simplest thing that any one can do to make their car safer, more gas efficient, whatever - check the tire pressure. | 112 |
| Burt Rutan | I drove an electric car for seven years because of its advanced technology, not because I have any concerns about energy resources. I have none at all. And when environmentalists say that global warming is dangerous, unprecedented and that we'll have a tipping point for atmospheric carbon dioxide, it's just nonsense. | 112 |
| Luca Cordero di Montezemolo | Ferrari used to be the car that you kept in your garage, took out to polish and show, and put back into the garage. | 112 |
| Rupert Everett | I think we've been dulled by capitalism. We're just blobs now - we're so worried about how we can keep paying the lease on the car, the mortgage, the lease on the toaster and all that. You can't really think about much else. If you lose that, you lose the whole lot. | 112 |
| St. Vincent | I grew up in Texas and we used to go to Padre Island, eight hours in the car down to the beach. | 112 |
| Max Irons | Acting advice is a bit like your parents teaching you how to drive a car. You know they're right, but you still kind of want them to shut up a bit. | 112 |
| Michael Behe | A man from a primitive culture who sees an automobile might guess that it was powered by the wind or by an antelope hidden under the car, but when he opens up the hood and sees the engine he immediately realizes that it was designed. | 112 |
| Alan King | My mother's sister was killed in a trolley car accident, so I was raised as one of eight with my sister and six male cousins. | 113 |
| Bill Watterson | Shutting off the thought process is not rejuvenating; the mind is like a car battery - it recharges by running. | 113 |
| Conrad Hall | It was 100 feet of 16 mm black-and-white film of a car coming to a stop sign, and driving off. I had to decide how to frame and light it. It was magic. There was a sense of mystery. | 113 |
| Dale Earnhardt | Richard Childress and myself have made some important innovations on our cars. | 113 |
| David Byrne | There's a certain amount of freedom involved in cycling: you're self-propelled and decide exactly where to go. If you see something that catches your eye to the left, you can veer off there, which isn't so easy in a car, and you can't cover as much ground walking. | 113 |
| Jackie Chan | American stuntmen are smart - they think about safety. When they do a jump in a car, they calculate everything: the speed, the distance... But in Hong Kong, we don't know how to count. Everything we do is a guess. If you've got the guts, you do it. All of my stuntmen have gotten hurt. | 113 |
| Keanu Reeves | Here comes 40. I'm feeling my age and I've ordered the Ferrari. I'm going to get the whole mid-life crisis package. | 113 |
| Mario Andretti | You're safer in the race car than you are in cars going to and from the track. | 113 |
| Rebecca Solnit | For me, being in a car or on an airplane is like being in limbo. It's this dead zone between two places. But to walk, you're some place that's already interesting. You're not just between places. Things are happening. | 113 |
| Tony Stewart | You get around people who see us away from the track, and it's a pretty big contrast. You're still competitive, and you still want to win everything, but I think in the car, we're focused and passionate all the time. We get outside the car, and we're a lot more relaxed and easygoing, enjoying things away from racing. | 113 |
| Alexandra Paul | I had never been able to get a car that said how much I cared about the environment until I drove electric. | 113 |
| Earl Wilson | Home, nowadays, is a place where part of the family waits till the rest of the family brings the car back. | 113 |
| Gavin DeGraw | When I was a kid I got busted for throwing a rock through a car window and egging a house on halloween. | 113 |
| Javier Bardem | When you put gas in your car you are making a political statement, because you are supporting the empires that control and continue the destruction of some countries. | 113 |
| Johnny Knoxville | People go to car races to watch the crashes. | 113 |
| Ryan Holmes | Every day I'd come home after school, pop the hood of my mom's car, put alligator clips on the battery, and wire into the house and go play on my computer. If I used it for too long, I'd wear down the car battery, and my mom would be all mad at me the next day. | 113 |
| Emerson Fittipaldi | Indy car racing is much more aggressive. | 113 |
| Janine Benyus | Hospital-acquired infections are now killing more people every year in the United States than die from AIDS or cancer or car accidents combined - about 100,000. | 113 |
| Picabo Street | But to personally satisfy my own adrenalin needs, I've been racing cars a little bit, which has been fun. | 113 |
| Steven Adler | My health is wonderful. I work out. I'm working. Playing music. I have a beautiful wife, a nice home, a nice car, I got money in the bank. I got three beautiful dogs that love me. Like I said, I'm blessed. I survived. | 113 |
| Catherine Bell | We're just into toys, whether it's motorcycles or race cars or computers. I've got the Palm Pilot right here with me, I've got the world's smallest phone. Maybe it's just because I'm still a big little kid and I just love toys, you know? | 113 |
| Marc Davis | Later, my father died up in Marysville. So, my mother and I got in the car and came down to Hollywood. | 113 |
| Allan McNish | I clipped a Ferrari, hit the gravel trap at a fair old speed, which lifted the car up into the barrier, and then rolled a few times. I had no injuries or anything - I just had to wait for the marshals to right the car before I could get out. | 113 |
| Jenson Button | The fast, flowing parts, the high-speed corners, that's where a Formula One car is at its best - changes of direction, pulling high g-forces left and right. | 113 |
| John C. McGinley | I have mixed feelings about 'Car 54, Where Are You?' Because we shot it as a musical and whoever the studio head was at Orion, or whoever the powers that be were, cut all but, like, two musical numbers out of it. That is the same as cutting the musical numbers out of 'The Wizard Of Oz'; it wouldn't be that interesting. | 113 |
| Ray Stannard Baker | The very first time I was on a car in Atlanta, I saw the conductor - all conductors are white - ask a Negro woman to get up and take a seat farther back in order to make a place for a white man. I have also seen white men requested to leave the Negro section of the car. | 113 |
| Jay Kay | I didn't get my first car until I was 22. It was a BMW 1602 and now I've got it back I'm waiting to restore it. | 113 |
| Angus Young | I never bothered with cars. I was probably one of the few kids in school who didn't run around with hot-rod magazines. As I would be at home fiddling with my guitar, they would be fiddling with a car engine. | 114 |
| Carroll Shelby | In 1964, when Lee Iacocca said, 'Shelby, I want you to make a sports car out of the Mustang,' the first thing I said was, 'Lee, you can't make a race horse out of a mule. I don't want to do it.' He said, 'I didn't ask you to make it; you work for me.' | 114 |
| Chris Hemsworth | I was filming 'The Avengers' when I got the call for 'Rush,' so I went from 215 pounds, which is how much I weigh when I'm playing Thor, down to about 185 pounds to be able to fit into the car. That was all in about four months. | 114 |
| Gene Roddenberry | I wanted to send a message to the television industry that excitement is not made of car chases. | 114 |
| Nick Vujicic | When kids run up to me and ask, 'What happened?' I just lean over and whisper, 'Cigarettes.' And once I was in a car and this girl at traffic lights was giving me the eye. She could only see my head, so I decided to do a 360 in the car seat to freak her out. Her face was like, 'Whoa, what is going on?' She sped off really quickly. | 114 |
| Peter De Vries | A suburban mother's role is to deliver children obstetrically once, and by car forever after. | 114 |
| Susana Martinez | We talked about many issues, like welfare, is it the way of life or hand up? Talked about size of government, how much should it tax families and small businesses? And when we left that lunch, we got in the car and I looked over at Chuck and said, 'I'll be damned. we're Republicans.' | 114 |
| Tim Allen | I think women like Ferraris. A Ferrari is everybody's car. | 114 |
| Tom Ford | I am a spiritual person in an eastern religion kind of way. I learned that happiness for all of us is a switch that you flick in your brain. It doesn't have anything to do with getting a new house, a new car, a new girlfriend, or a new pair of shoes. Our culture is very much about that; we are never happy with what we have today. | 114 |
| Alan Jackson | What I enjoy doing more than anything is, I have my little antique car collection, and when the weather is pretty I like to get out one of my old cars. I have a little route I run down in the country, down Nachez Trace Parkway. The loop down through there is just really relaxing, not much traffic. | 114 |
| Andre Leon Talley | I will sit in the car on the way to a meeting and just smile. I really mean that. It helps you get through life. If you have nothing to say, smile. Look up at the sky and smile. Just be grateful. | 114 |
| Daryl Hall | Like all soul singers, I grew up singing in church but sometimes I would leave early and sit in the car listening to gospel band, The Blind Boys of Alabama. Hearing their lead singer Clarence made me connect the idea of church and show business and see how I could make a career singing music that stirred the soul. | 114 |
| Ellen Page | I think the Smart Car is awesome. The only problem is I've been on the freeway and felt like I was going to be blown away like a Tim Hortons coffee cup, so I may have to upgrade to a Mini Cooper - something a little stronger. | 114 |
| Herb Alpert | I don't think radio is selling records like they used to. They'd hawk the song and hawk the artist and you'd get so excited, you'd stop your car and go into the nearest record store. | 114 |
| Larry Hagman | My definition of a redundancy is an air-bag in a politician's car. | 114 |
| Pierre Omidyar | I had the notion that, OK, so now we have all of this wealth, we could buy not only one expensive car, we could buy all of them. As soon as you realize that you could buy all of them, then none of them are particularly interesting or satisfying. | 114 |
| Joel Coen | We have an uncanny ability to make birds do what we want them to do. In Blood Simple there's a shot from the bumper of a car and it's going up this road and a huge flock of birds takes off at the perfect moment. | 114 |
| Michael Nutter | Mayors could never get away with the kind of nonsense that goes on in Washington. In our world, you either picked up the trash or you didn't. You either moved an abandoned car or you didn't. You either filled a pothole or you didn't. That's what we do every day. And we know how to get this stuff done. | 114 |
| Judah Friedlander | I've been driving in the city for years because, as a stand-up in N.Y.C., you can perform at more comedy clubs a night if you have a car. Getting from club to club by subway is too slow at night and too expensive by cab. So, many comics live far out from Manhattan and drive in every night. | 114 |
| Rodney Dangerfield | My wife wants sex in the back of the car and she wants me to drive. | 115 |
| John Lydon | I don't have huge bank accounts. I'd love one. But it wouldn't change much. I don't have any expensive habits. I'm not a car collector or any of that nonsense. But I'd love to be incredibly wealthy for no reason at all. | 115 |
| Bikram Choudhury | I bought a 1964 Bentley for $1,600 and re-built it over five years. When I drove it in Tokyo after that, it was the pride of the road. That car would command at least $150,000 today because 'Bikram' has restored it. | 115 |
| Carroll Shelby | The reason I moved to California the first time was to build the Cobra. I thought it was stupid to have a 1918 taxicab engine in what Europeans like to call a performance car when a little American V-8 could do the job better. | 115 |
| David Byrne | On a bike, being just slightly above pedestrian and car eye level, one gets a perfect view of the goings-on in one's own town. | 115 |
| Eddie Rickenbacker | Long practise in driving a racing car at a hundred miles an hour or so gives first-class training in control and judging distances at high speed and helps tremendously in getting motor sense, which is rather the feel of your engine than the sound of it, a thing you get through your bones and nerves rather than simply your ears. | 115 |
| Edward de Bono | Many highly intelligent people are poor thinkers. Many people of average intelligence are skilled thinkers. The power of a car is separate from the way the car is driven. | 115 |
| Eric Schmidt | Your car should drive itself. It's amazing to me that we let humans drive cars... It's a bug that cars were invented before computers. | 115 |
| Gabriel Iglesias | The Ford Flex is a really, really cool car. You get inside and you have so much headroom and it's really comfortable to drive and it's real techy inside. You look at the screen and it's blue and you've got all kinds of controls. Everything is digital. | 115 |
| Kelly Rowland | I do sing in the car. I actually sing Britney Spears songs in the car - me and a close friend of mine. She lives in West Palm and I live in Miami, and when we're going back and forth to see each other, we sing: 'Oh, Baby Baby.' We sing all these 1990s songs. We're like two 14-year-old kids just having a good time. | 115 |
| Tallulah Bankhead | (On seeing a former lover for the first time in years) I thought I told you to wait in the car. | 115 |
| Taraji P. Henson | A woman is gentle, soft, delicate, and a man's position is to protect her, help her up stairs, make sure she's in the car safely first. Take good care of your woman, and the sky's the limit! | 115 |
| Victoria Principal | I arrived in California with no job, no car, and no money, but, like millions of other girls, a dream. | 115 |
| Charles Dance | A car to pick me up every day, a chair with my name on it, everybody being very polite... what can you do except sit back and watch it all, try to take it all in? | 115 |
| Danielle Steel | I am endlessly busy, bringing up five young kids, and trying to keep up with the three older ones. I still spend most of my life driving car pools. | 115 |
| George Papandreou | People would say you look weak if you're not cursing the opposition and driving around in a big black car while always wearing a tie. Above all, to be 'strong' you're always supposed to be giving orders. | 115 |
| Hilarie Burton | I like the guy who reads. Being articulate is something that's very important to me. But you need to know how to chop wood and fix a car and do guy things. I didn't grow up with spectators. Nobody was a spectator. | 115 |
| Manfred von Richthofen | In the heat of the Russian summer a sleeping car is the most horrible instrument of martyrdom imaginable. | 115 |
| Sloane Crosley | The year most of my high school friends and I got our driver's permits, the coolest thing one could do was stand outside after school and twirl one's car keys like a lifeguard whistle. That jingling sound meant freedom and power. | 115 |
| Daryl Hannah | We need a number of solutions - we need more efficiency and conservation. Efficiency is a big one. I think car companies need to do a lot better in producing more efficient cars. They have the technology, we just need to demand them as consumers. | 115 |
| Jonathan Winters | I was always an observer, even as a child. I could be satisfied to sit in a car for 3 hours and just look at the street go by while my mother went shopping. | 115 |
| Jeremy London | I'm gonna be the best dad that ever lived. I'll have a ranch with a race car track and a golf course. | 115 |
| Jim Bakker | I started out by believing God for a newer car than the one I was driving. I started out believing God for a nicer apartment than I had. Then I moved up. | 115 |
| Erma Bombeck | Never have more children than you have car windows. | 116 |
| Hunter S. Thompson | America... just a nation of two hundred million used car salesmen with all the money we need to buy guns and no qualms about killing anybody else in the world who tries to make us uncomfortable. | 116 |
| Kim Kardashian | I know people think we drive around in these nice cars and we do whatever we want and our parents will pay our credit cards, but that's not the case. Sure, my parents were generous; I got a nice car at 16, but at 18 I was cut off. I've worked really hard. I opened the store myself. | 116 |
| Bobbi Brown | Every business decision I ever made I learned from my grandfather Papa Sam. He moved here from Russia when he was a boy. He worked his way up selling newspapers and ladies' handbags, and eventually, he became Cadillac Sam, one of the biggest car dealers in Chicago. | 116 |
| Carroll Shelby | Driving race cars was an avenue for me to learn how to build my own car, and that was my ambition all along. | 116 |
| Gus Van Sant | If you don't have the story and the unfolding of the trajectory of the saga, it's like getting in a car and not having any gas. | 116 |
| Haile Gebrselassie | You must do as your people do. If my people are poor, I must be poor. People ask me, 'Why don't you find a personal coach or a private car?' I can't. Then I won't be part of my people. | 116 |
| Mike Birbiglia | My first car was, as depicted in 'Sleepwalk with Me,' my mother's '92 Volvo station wagon that had 80,000 miles on it, and I had put 40,000 miles on it, so by the time it retired it had 120,000, and I basically killed it. It served me well, and my mechanic was always very angry with me because I just didn't properly care for it. | 116 |
| Orlando Bloom | People think getting a new partner is like getting a new car. | 116 |
| Valentino Rossi | I would have probably stolen cars - it would have given me the same adrenaline rush as racing. | 116 |
| Zygmunt Bauman | Partnerships are increasingly seen through the prism of promises and expectations, and as a kind of product for consumers: satisfaction on the spot, and if not fully satisfied, return the product to the shop or replace it with a new and improved one! You don't, after all, stick to your car, or computer, or iPod, when better ones appear. | 116 |
| Alain Prost | One of my biggest problems this season was with the clutch at the start of the race. I hate to risk the car. | 116 |
| Apolo Ohno | I know that BMW is now a sponsor of the USOC - of the United States Olympic Committee - so they offer the use of their aerodynamic speed-tunnel for testing and such for the athletes, which is a great advantage. But to be honest with you, I'd rather have a free car! | 116 |
| Jeffrey Kluger | Spending $1 for a brand new house would feel very, very good. Spending $1,000 for a ham sandwich would feel very, very bad. Spending $19,000 for a small family car would feel, well, more or less right. But as with physical pain, fiscal pain can depend on the individual, and everyone has a different threshold. | 116 |
| Merle Haggard | It sounds like something from a Woody Guthrie song, but it's true; I was raised in a freight car. | 116 |
| Peter Tork | I never listen to music in the house, I listen to music in the car. | 116 |
| Sebastian Vettel | When you walk the track and you see a corner and realise you were going round it at 160mph, you wonder who could be so stupid to take a corner at that speed. But in the car, you don't even think about that. | 116 |
| David Gerrold | If you were a kid in 1955, you would pick up a copy of 'Popular Science' and it would say, 'This is the kind of car you're going to be driving in five years or in 20 years you'll be able to take a jet plane from New York to London in four hours,' or something like that. We actually got used to the idea that the future's going to be different. | 116 |
| Robert Herjavec | Older cars tend to drive like older cars. That is not for me. | 116 |
| S. Jay Olshansky | The reason we have cancer and heart disease is the same reason you can't get rid of the wear and tear on your tires on your car: as soon as you use them, you are wearing them away. You can't make eternal tires, and it's the same with the human body. | 116 |
| Jenson Button | You're pulling 4-5G for a lot of the corners around the lap. We build up lactic acid because there are a lot of vibrations in the car, and you have to have strong legs to hit the brake pedal. We need to be fit to do every lap at 100%. | 116 |
| John Barrowman | I did archery when I was in high school. In our gym class we had two weeks of archery, and I remember taking the bow and arrow and firing it up and across the street into a car parking lot. | 116 |
| Elon Musk | I've actually made a prediction that within 30 years a majority of new cars made in the United States will be electric. And I don't mean hybrid, I mean fully electric. | 117 |
| Gary Vaynerchuk | Okay, let's talk about cartoon labels for half a second - some people think anything with a dog or a car or a colorful alien is garbage, which is not true. Look at Big Moose Red. It's, like, a $6 wine with a cheesy label, and it's actually a solid wine. | 117 |
| Dan Lipinski | Most of us would never consider getting our car repaired without first receiving an estimate of the charges, but this is exactly what we do when we need to go to a hospital for treatment. | 117 |
| Herschel Walker | I was a little different. I still say I'm a little different, because success to me is not having the most money, or having the biggest car or the biggest house. | 117 |
| Leona Lewis | When I was really little I would sit in the back of my dad's car when he'd be playing old-school music. He'd turn down the music and turn around and I'd be singing and know all of the words but I didn't even know how to talk. From then on I've always wanted to be a singer. | 117 |
| Lucinda Williams | Of course, I'm older now. I'm in a different place in my life than when I wrote the songs for 'Car Wheels' or 'Essence' or whatever. Different things were going on. | 117 |
| Murray Walker | And that just shows you how important the car is in Formula One Racing. | 117 |
| Tyler Cowen | Some Google employees have their self-driving vehicles take them to work. These car robots don't look like something from 'The Jetsons'; the driverless features on these cars are a bunch of sensors, wires, and software. This technology 'works.' | 117 |
| Avril Lavigne | I'm very free-spirited and crazy. I love to have fun, and I like doing stupid things. At the same time, I'm like a 35-year-old. I have a house. I have a car. I have a steady job. I have a business, and I have to make serious decisions. | 117 |
| Cyndi Lauper | I absolutely refuse to reveal my age. What am I - a car? | 117 |
| Michael Dell | If you think about computing, there isn't just one way to compute, just like there's not just one way to move around. You can have shoes, you can have a car, you can have a bicycle, submarine, rocket, plane, train, glider, whatever. Because you have one doesn't mean you get rid of another one... But PCs continue to be important. | 117 |
| Susan Orlean | I want to let my friend Buster know that I would like to have dinner with him tonight. Does Buster work at home? Then how likely is he to have his cell phone on? Is he one of those people who only turns on his cell when he's in his car? I hate that. | 117 |
| Suzi Quatro | The bass player's function, along with the drums, is to be the engine that drives the car... everything else is merely colours. | 117 |
| Jim DeMint | I drive Fords, and I've driven American cars all my life, and I want to have a strong American manufacturing sector, especially in automobiles. | 117 |
| Randy Bachman | When I pull into a city and I rent a car and it's Nashville, or it's London, or I'm driving in the taxi to the hotel, and on comes one of my songs, it's like, 'Oh my God, they're still playing these songs on the radio.' And you still feel tearful and very grateful that somebody still likes these songs that you made up. | 117 |
| Richard M. Daley | I'm the one who gets called up about a problem. I'm the one who gets called up about the street lighting and the abandoned car. I'm the one who gets blamed if the police don't arrive. I'm the one they blame if a city truck is broken down. | 117 |
| Elon Musk | I'm glad to see that BMW is bringing an electric car to market. That's cool. | 118 |
| Steven Wright | I hooked up my accelerator pedal in my car to my brake lights. I hit the gas, people behind me stop, and I'm gone. | 118 |
| Thich Nhat Hanh | In the past there were people who were not rich but contented with their living style, laughing and happy all day. But when the new rich people appear, people look at them and ask, 'why don't I have a life like that too, a beautiful house, car and garden,' and they abandon their values. | 118 |
| Andie MacDowell | We've become such a multitasking society that just paying attention to the road doesn't seem to be that important anymore. I have to remind my kids all the time that that's what you're supposed to be doing in the car. | 118 |
| Dean Kamen | The city needs a car like a fish needs a bicycle. | 118 |
| French Montana | Besides my son, music is the most important thing to me. I always have music on in my car and playing at house, and I'm in the studio or performing every night. I like Beats by Dre for headphones, and Bang & Olufsen soundsystems. | 118 |
| Kate Smith | As soon as I began to earn what might be called fairly large sums, I bought a car and began to explore the country around New York. | 118 |
| Lewis Mumford | Forget the damned motor car and build the cities for lovers and friends. | 118 |
| Richard Pryor | I went to Zimbabwe. I know how white people feel in America now; relaxed! Cause when I heard the police car I knew they weren't coming after me! | 118 |
| Seth MacFarlane | I have a car that I like - an Aston Martin - for Sunday drives in the country. | 118 |
| Alain Prost | The people who criticise you will not be the ones taking care of your legs when you are in your wheelchair. People who never drove a car in these conditions, they just don't know. | 118 |
| Lucy Hale | I definitely love that all these car brands are coming out with hybrid forms of every car that they have. It's very awesome because I think it does make a difference, and it doesn't hurt that you save a lot of money on gas. | 118 |
| Rodney Atkins | I could be on 52nd and Third in Manhattan up and ask a strange for directions and they will help you, that's a rural heart. Your car breaks down in the middle of Iowa or somewhere, or Tennessee where I'm from, people want to help each other. Given each opportunity, you see how people come together. | 118 |
| Sophie Ellis-Bextor | Come rain or shine I walk short distances rather than taking my car. | 118 |
| Randy Bachman | I remember having my father stand over me when I had driven over my own foot; one leg was out of the car and one leg was in the car. He looked at me and told me that I was a drunk and that he was ashamed to call me his son. That night, I stopped drinking and I never drank again; I was twenty four. | 118 |
| Stone Gossard | I really enjoy not getting in a car and running errands on bikes. | 118 |
| Jenson Button | We all drive differently and have different styles. For me I need a car I can develop beneath me and feel comfortable in. If the car feels neutral and unbalanced it doesn't work for me. | 118 |
| Joel Osteen | See, when you drive home today, you've got a big windshield on the front of your car. And you've got a little bitty rearview mirror. And the reason the windshield is so large and the rearview mirror is so small is because what's happened in your past is not near as important as what's in your future. | 119 |
| Douglas Rushkoff | Marketers use big data profiling to predict who is about to get pregnant, who is likely to buy a new car, and who is about to change sexual orientations. That's how they know what ads to send to whom. The NSA, meanwhile, wants to know who is likely to commit an act of terrorism - and for this, they need us. | 119 |
| Evangeline Lilly | When I got the job on 'Lost,' I was a broke university student living in the crappiest part of town, with a duct-taped back window on a broken-down car. I existed on peanut butter and tea. | 119 |
| Kid Rock | Two of my grandparents died in a car crash. Sucks, 'cause they would have lived to a hundred. | 119 |
| Leon Trotsky | There is a limit to the application of democratic methods. You can inquire of all the passengers as to what type of car they like to ride in, but it is impossible to question them as to whether to apply the brakes when the train is at full speed and accident threatens. | 119 |
| Philip K. Dick | Drug misuse is not a disease, it is a decision, like the decision to step out in front of a moving car. You would call that not a disease but an error of judgment. | 119 |
| Ratan Tata | If I were to look in the United States or in Europe, in some of the garages, you would have a Bentley or two Bentleys or a high-end Mercedes, and you may find a Smart also in that same garage because that person thinks it's a fun extra car to have. He may have four cars but also have a Smart because he thinks it is cute. | 119 |
| Zoe Kravitz | I like to wear shoes that are cool but also practical. The same goes for bags. Your bag is a big deal in New York. You can't just carry around a little clutch, because you don't have a car or anywhere to stash things during the day, so you need to carry your whole life with you. That's why I like big, chunky bags with lots of compartments. | 119 |
| A. R. Rahman | It's like driving your car. If you drive too fast on the highway, you will topple, so you better maintain your speed. Life is similar to that, and that's the way you have to control your head. | 119 |
| Cory Monteith | I've worked as a labourer, driven taxis and school buses, and been a car mechanic - whatever I could do just to get by. But it does mean that I know a little bit about a lot of things. | 119 |
| Dan Jenkins | First, I thought Twitter was some kind of hybrid car being developed by Government Motors. Then I thought it was a new bite-size snack combining what's best of the Frito and the Cheeto. Then I found out it was me. On a laptop. At the U.S. Open. Having fun. | 119 |
| Michael Schumacher | In sport there is never any moment that is the same as the other. I have been in Formula One for 12 years, and out of that I had one year with the perfect car. | 119 |
| Roger Bannister | I lived on the top of one hill and the school was at the top of another hill. Nobody ever went to school by car - we didn't have any cars during the war. So that to and from school was itself a training. | 119 |
| Joe Montana | Man, coaching is a hard job, and it requires a lot of time... I hear stories from coaches who tell me that players call them in the middle of the night not knowing where they parked their car. | 119 |
| Jenson Button | When I do retire, I know for a fact that I'll never be able to replace the incredible feeling I get when I'm driving an F1 car. | 119 |
| Ayrton Senna | And suddenly I realised that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was driving it by a kind of instinct, only I was in a different dimension. | 120 |
| George Lucas | I wanted to race cars. I didn't like school, and all I wanted to do was work on cars. But right before I graduated, I got into a really bad car accident, and I spent that summer in the hospital thinking about where I was heading. I decided to take education more seriously and go to a community college. | 120 |
| Jeff Foxworthy | My grandma's the most careful, safe driver in the world. You put her in a rental car, and she's doing doughnuts in the K-Mart parking lot! | 120 |
| Robbie Williams | The thing about drugs and sex is that you lose all your inhibitions. I've had sex in trains, planes, wine bars... and quite a few car parks! | 120 |
| Steven Gerrard | When I leave the car park at Melwood, I try and become a completely different person. I try to get away from it. You have got to. Otherwise you end up like Jamie Carragher - obsessed! | 120 |
| Tom Wolfe | Driving a stock car does not require much handling ability, at least not as compared to Grand Prix racing, because the tracks are simple banked ovals and there is almost no shifting of gears. So, qualifying becomes a test of raw nerve - of how fast a man is willing to take a curve. | 120 |
| Javier Bardem | I don't know how to drive a car. | 120 |
| Maurice Strong | Toyota was the first to put a commercial fuel cell powered car on the road, and I have no doubt that Toyota will continue to be in the front lines in the development of competitive fuel cell vehicles. | 120 |
| Michael Fassbender | You know, it's amazing. I don't even have a car, would you believe it? I had a motorbike and it got stolen last year. So I've got to buy another one of those, I suppose. I can treat myself to that. | 120 |
| Sonam Kapoor | It makes me happy that people recognise me and want to click pictures with me. But sometimes, I want to be a common person. I want to go to a coffee shop and just chill. I miss driving my car with the windows rolled down. | 120 |
| Thomas Perez | If you're one car accident away from poverty, you're on a high wire without a safety net. And that's a challenging proposition. | 120 |
| Tiesto | I would love to fall in love and get married and have beautiful children. I mean that's one of the goals in life, I think, to have, and it's a beautiful thing. My sister has kids and all my friends have kids. They show me their, you know their report cards. And I can show them my sports car. | 120 |
| Jonathan Safran Foer | Food is not just what we put in our mouths to fill up; it is culture and identity. Reason plays some role in our decisions about food, but it's rarely driving the car. | 120 |
| Matt Dillon | People get really nuts around cars. They get angry at cars, they get angry at their car, they get angry at people driving in cars; there's something really comical about that, about automobiles. | 120 |
| Aaron Tveit | I listen to all kinds of music, but I've always been a really big fan of Top 40 radio. If I'm in my car, that's what I listen to. | 120 |
| Jenson Button | I don't purposely speed, but I might go over by five or six miles an hour from time to time. It doesn't give me a buzz driving on normal roads, because I can't go fast enough. It's never going to be anything like an F1 car. | 120 |
| Adam Savage | In theory, cars are fairly simple. If they don't start, it's either the fuel system or the electrical system. Teach yourself about the path of each in your engine and tracing it is fairly straightforward. But at the beginning, mastering each new system seems like an unreachable shore. The car is effectively a black box. | 121 |
| ASAP Rocky | I take cabs if I need to get somewhere or I take car service. I don't drive, I wouldn't mind riding a bike... People think that because you become an entertainer you gotta have this rock star thug image. I'm an artist, man. I'm going to live like an artist. | 121 |
| Jesse Jackson | Many kids come out of college, they have a credit card and a diploma. They don't know how to buy a house or a car or health insurance or life insurance. They do not know basic microeconomics. | 121 |
| Kevin O'Leary | I'm starting to think about things that I want to do, things that are fun. One of them is driving a car like a Porsche. I've driven a lot of cars - sedans, trucks and big family vehicles all year long. But there's nothing like a four-wheel-drive Porsche. | 121 |
| Mario Andretti | 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. | 121 |
| Peter Diamandis | My personal fascination with the power of the crowd has been growing: Exactly what can a 'crowd' accomplish? We know crowds can raise billions of dollars, create Wikipedia, and even design and build small autonomous drones. But how about something large and complex like designing a new car, and maybe someday even a spaceship? | 121 |
| Christina Ricci | I want a Mini-Cooper because it's fuel efficient, emissions efficient and all that stuff. It's small and better for the environment. I think that will be my next car. | 121 |
| Garry Shandling | I keep my scrapbooks in the car. When I come to a stoplight, I start looking through my past. Sometimes I wish the red lights were longer. | 121 |
| T-Pain | I've made club songs, and I've made radio songs, and I've made the car songs. | 121 |
| Tracey Ullman | I'm still that little girl who lisped and sat in the back of the car and threw vegetables at the back of her head when we drove home from the market. That never goes. | 121 |
| Hunter S. Thompson | Justice is expensive in America. There are no Free Passes... You might want to remember this, the next time you get careless and blow off a few Parking Tickets. They will come back to haunt you the next time you see a Cop car in your rear-view mirror. | 122 |
| Ben Stiller | Paul is Starsky, and I met him before shooting. He was very kind and encouraged us to go with what we wanted to do. It was very sweet to see them back with the car after 25 years. | 122 |
| Blake Shelton | I lost my brother in a car wreck when I was 14 years old. When I decided I wanted to be a country singer, my dad always told me, 'Son, you should write a song about your brother.' | 122 |
| Danica Patrick | I'm a big believer in everybody being themselves. If not doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself, that's great. But if doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself, then you should be able to do it. What I do outside the car adds to who I am and expresses a different side of me. | 122 |
| Elizabeth Warren | I pay for homeowner's insurance, I pay for car insurance, I pay for health insurance. | 122 |
| Fred Durst | When life was worrying about a car payment or a rent payment and a bill, you're so consumed with that, you really don't have time to know yourself. That's surviving and getting by. | 122 |
| Mario Andretti | With tennis, you can go pick up a racket, take a lesson, and understand how much talent and skill it takes to be as good as the top pros. Same with golf: pick up a club. But not many can go out and get in a race car and experience a drive at over 200 miles an hour. | 122 |
| Murray Walker | Either the car is stationary, or it's on the move. | 122 |
| Norman Foster | I think cars encapsulate the history of innovation and style - it's the other side of the coin of the car being public enemy No.1. | 122 |
| Scott Adams | In less enlightened times, the best way to impress women was to own a hot car. But women wised up and realized it was better to buy their own hot cars so they wouldn't have to ride around with jerks. | 122 |
| Brittany Snow | Have you ever noticed how nice people are at the car wash?! Maybe it's just me, but it makes me happy. Weird, I know! | 122 |
| Captain Beefheart | I would never kill a living thing, although I probably have inadvertently while driving automobiles. | 122 |
| Michael Schumacher | I hate to take compromises with a racing car. The more standard a car is, the more compromises you have to take. | 122 |
| Mike Myers | Austin sounds a little bit like Aston Martin, which is the type of car James Bond would drive. | 122 |
| Sebastian Vettel | Qualifying is all about putting everything that you have and that the car has in one lap. It's like a rush, I really enjoy that. | 122 |
| Muddy Waters | I was so wild and crazy and dumb in my car. It didn't run but 30 miles an hour. You made do. | 122 |
| Jessica Savitch | By far my most perilous assignment was covering a tank car explosion. | 122 |
| Ernie Banks | I own stock, and I also insure my car with Geico. | 123 |
| Wentworth Miller | Nobody's ever asked me to pay for a meal before I've eaten it, I've never been pulled over just because I was driving the wrong kind of car in the wrong kind of area at the wrong time of night. | 123 |
| Will Ferrell | I hate when someone drives my car and resets all the radio presets. I don't understand it. If I was ever driving someone's car, I would never touch the things that were set. | 123 |
| Lucy Hale | I love Lady Antebellum and Miranda Lambert - they write from the heart. But it's hard to find a country music lover in L.A. None of my friends really listen to it, and they hate getting in the car with me because I just blast Taylor Swift. | 123 |
| Sebastian Vettel | All in all it was a smooth race, the car was very well balanced. I'm very proud to be the first winner here in India. | 123 |
| John Travolta | The first thing I ever rode when I was a kid was a motorcycle, so I knew how to drive a motorcycle before a car. | 123 |
| ASAP Rocky | I don't like new cars; I'm into vintage cars - there's a Jaguar E-Type in the 'Goldie' video. | 124 |
| Billie Holiday | They think they can make fuel from horse manure - now, I don't know if your car will be able to get 30 miles to the gallon, but it's sure gonna put a stop to siphoning. | 124 |
| Craig Ferguson | It's like, it's kind of like if you ever had a car and it was a bit of a clunker but you love it, that's my show. It's a bit of a clunker but I know where everything is and I like it. | 124 |
| Jean-Claude Van Damme | I like structure - like driving: go past the school on the street, stay on the right side, no hitting the car, go in right, you'll see a big church, stop and take a left, and you'll have it. By doing this I'm giving a structure of life, a path of light, and showing what happens between me and me, which is something very beautiful. | 124 |
| Robert Redford | I've always liked speed. I own a car that I shouldn't be talking about because I'm an environmentalist, but the 1955 Porsche Spyder 550 RS is the finest sports car ever made. | 124 |
| Slash | I allow myself one nice car. | 124 |
| Bobby Darin | There are certain times I don't want my picture taken. If my wife's stepping out of a car and it looks like it's going to come out an indecent picture, don't I have a right to object? | 124 |
| Peter Guber | A gun can be dangerous. But a gun can protect you, you can hunt for food with it - you know, the tool itself is a tool. The intention of the party using the tool is a part of the process, right? You know: the knife cuts the steak, stabs the person, saves somebody from danger, cuts somebody out of a car. | 124 |
| Jane Campion | I did this Super-8 film at art school called 'Tissues,' this black comedy about a family whose father has been arrested for child molestation. I was absolutely thrilled by every inch of it, and would throw my projector in the back of my car and show it to anybody who would watch it. | 124 |
| Chris Pratt | When you're doing a TV show, it's not like you just shoot for six weeks and you're in an editing room with all of your footage. It's like a guitar or a car, you have to fine tune things. You stop doing what's not working, you work on what is working and you add things that do work. | 125 |
| Lorde | I've always listened to a lot of rap. It's all, 'Look at this car that cost me so much money, look at this Champagne.' It's super fun. | 125 |
| Mignon McLaughlin | A car is useless in New York, essential everywhere else. The same with good manners. | 125 |
| Tim Vine | So I was getting into my car, and this bloke says to me 'Can you give me a lift?' I said 'Sure, you look great, the world's your oyster, go for it.' | 125 |
| A. S. Byatt | Cyclists. I really hate them. I wish they would not be so self-righteous and realise they are a danger to pedestrians. I wish cyclists would not vindictively snap off wing mirrors on cars when they were trying to cross in front of the car at a danger to motorists and pedestrians. | 125 |
| Criss Angel | It's so funny looking back, but my so-called overnight success actually took 15 years. I remember when I didn't have any money, and my only car was mom's Hyundai. | 125 |
| M.I.A. | My uncle was the first brown person to have a market stall on Petticoat Lane in the 1960s. He worked his way up from the street. He was homeless, but eventually he got a car so he could sell from the boot. And by the 1980s, he was a millionaire wholesaling to companies like Topshop. So in a way, fashion put me in England. | 125 |
| Austin Mahone | YI teamed up with the Allstate Foundation to basically inform teens why it's important to drive safe. I feel I'm new on the road, so it's important to do these three main things: The first one is buckle up, the second one is slow down, don't speed, and the third one is don't let your friends distract you in the car. | 125 |
| Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu | 'Amores Perros' is three stories that interconnect in one moment, which is the car accident. | 126 |
| Anthony Hopkins | Years ago I met Richard Burton in Port Talbot, my home town, and afterwards he passed in his car with his wife, and I thought, 'I want to get out and become like him'. Not because of Wales, because I love Wales, but because I was so limited as a child at school and so bereft and lonely, and I thought becoming an actor would do that. | 126 |
| Dale Earnhardt | I don't want to argue with my wife about her car - or my driving. | 126 |
| Eliot Spitzer | The irony is that it was tougher to rent a car from Cerberus when it owned Alamo than to buy a semi-automatic. To rent a car, one had to provide ID, a drivers' license, and get insurance coverage. To buy a gun? Cash and carry, from the back of a station wagon at a gun show. No concerns about downstream liability or risk. | 126 |
| Patton Oswalt | You know, in Los Angeles, you're constantly in your car, you're sealed up, you're not walking around. Whereas in New York, after a while, all your stuff is kind of public, in one way or the other. I'm not saying either one of those is bad; they're both great for a very specific kind of comedian. And I'm glad that they both exist. | 126 |
| Robert Rauschenberg | I did a twenty foot print and John Cage is involved in that because he was the only person I knew in New York who had a car and who would be willing to do this. | 126 |
| Christina Ricci | I've never been to a race car race before. | 126 |
| J. G. Ballard | The American Dream has run out of gas. The car has stopped. It no longer supplies the world with its images, its dreams, its fantasies. No more. It's over. It supplies the world with its nightmares now: the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, Vietnam. | 126 |
| John Ortberg | A bad sermon is like a car wreck - everyone slows down to see what happened. | 126 |
| Rupert Grint | I'd like to have the flying car, I think that'd be really cool. | 126 |
| Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu | The creative process is mysterious; a conversation, a ride in the car, or a melody can trigger something. | 201 |
| Evan Davis | Someday we'll look back on this moment and plow into a parked car. | 201 |
| Joyce Carol Oates | If you are a writer you locate yourself behind a wall of silence and no matter what you are doing, driving a car or walking or doing housework you can still be writing, because you have that space. | 201 |
| Kristen Bell | I'm carded for R-rated movies. And I get talked down to a lot. When I try to go rent a car or buy an airplane ticket or other stuff adults do, I get 'Okaaaaaay, honey.' I remember when I was 18, getting crayons in a restaurant. | 201 |
| Amy Winehouse | I was hit by a car once on my bike, but I still rode home. | 202 |
| Barbara Bush | It seems to me I spent my life in car pools, but you know, that's how I kept track of what was going on. | 202 |
| Etta James | Johnny Guitar... just one of my favorite singers of all time. I met him when we were both on the road with Johnny Otis in the '50s when I was a teenager. We traveled the country in a car together. I would hear him sing every night. | 202 |
| Ice T | I started rapping before anybody had ever bought a car from it. It was truly about the art form and the culture, more so than now, where it's a successful way to make money. Back then you had to be doing it because you liked it. | 202 |
| Naomi Campbell | Yes, I did and a lot of my friends who are in the same program as I were very much supportive, and the most important thing they said to me is do not let this interfere with what you have to do in taking car of yourself. That was the most important thing. | 202 |
| P. J. O'Rourke | Some day you will be wheeled in for a heart bypass operation, and a surgeon will be the person who is now behind the counter when you renew your car registration at the department of motor vehicles. | 203 |
| Patton Oswalt | I have a very tiny house in Burbank. I drive an 8-year-old car. I'm gonna drive it into the ground. I enjoy what I enjoy. | 203 |
| Sebastian Thrun | If you look at the ability of a self-driving car to stay in the lane and not to speed and keep a good distance to the car in front of you, it actually does better than me. | 203 |
| Debby Ryan | My mom always makes the whole family pile into the car and drive around to look at the Christmas lights. My brother and I never want to do it, but my mom just loves it! | 203 |
| Debi Mazar | My mom had me at 16 and took me every place she went. I remember going on peace marches. She tried to take me to Woodstock - it was pouring rain. It was on my birthday, and I was crying so much in the car they turned the car around and dumped me at my grandmother's house... I had a little attitude. | 203 |
| Matthew Perry | I would like you all to give me a round of applause as I have not crashed my car in over 15 months. | 203 |
| Joshua Foer | When I climb into my car, I enter my destination into a GPS device, whose spatial memory supplants my own. I have photographs to store the images I want to remember, books to store knowledge and now, thanks to Google, I rarely have to remember anything more than the right set of search terms to access humankind's collective memory. | 203 |
| Virat Kohli | I love driving my car on any highway. | 204 |
| Kevin Bacon | I'd really like to get the girl, shoot the gun, drive the car, have fun. I even have these kind of action dreams, where I'm the action guy. | 204 |
| Amber Heard | I grew up in Texas, and people love their American-made muscle cars there. I grew up around people who loved cars and took care of cars and my dad's a big car nut, so I learned a little bit about cars - how to love them, most importantly. I think that from the time I could remember, I've always envisioned myself in a vintage muscle car. | 204 |
| Sebastian Vettel | We always kept believing in ourselves and our team and the car. | 204 |
| John Mellencamp | You cannot expect the guy who drove the car into the ditch to navigate it out of the ditch. You have to put a new driver in the seat. I'm not saying the new driver is going to be any better, but we need a new driver. Kerry is the only choice. | 204 |
| Edward de Bono | Removing the faults in a stage-coach may produce a perfect stage-coach, but it is unlikely to produce the first motor car. | 205 |
| Hill Harper | My friend is a former race car driver, so he races for Mercedes, and I root for him. I have a car that I love to race, I'll take it to the track. | 205 |
| Jesse Ventura | A car is a 2,000 pound projectile that can go 100 miles an hour. | 205 |
| John Lasseter | 'Cars' is a really personal story for me because, first of all, I grew up in Los Angeles - the car crazy capital. | 205 |
| Nassim Nicholas Taleb | I drive a hybrid, moving into an electric car. I only drink tap water, never consume food that's travelled. | 205 |
| Paul Weller | I get labelled as just being about one thing, but there's lots of layers to what I do. It's just lazy journalism, but people start to accept it. If people spent an hour in my car driving around London and listening to the stuff I listen to, they'd hear some interesting stuff. | 205 |
| Tom Hodgkinson | Faffing is good. It is an important part of life. Faffing is when we disconnect from the matrix and idle for a while, like a car. Our body and spirit know deep down that human beings were not made for constant toil so subconsciously creates space through the mechanism of faffing. | 205 |
| Laurie Anderson | My work is more about trying to ask good questions and not trying to come up with big shows. Every fashion company is doing that, every car company is doing that. | 205 |
| Joseph Barbera | I hate fishing, and I can't imagine why anyone would want to hike when you can get in the car and drive. | 205 |
| Dolly Parton | Nobody can ever make enough money for as many poor relatives as I've got. Somebody's got a sick kid, or somebody needs an operation, somebody ain't got this, somebody ain't got that. Or to give the kids all a car when they graduate. | 206 |
| Gilbert Gottfried | I'm one of those people, in any country I'm in, if somebody could just put me in a car or a bus, I'll look out the window and say, 'OK, there's the Tower of London, there's Buckingham Palace, there's Big Ben,' and if it all takes about five minutes, perfect. I've seen all of it and I can go home. | 206 |
| Will Self | In survey after survey, people report that the greatest dangers they face are, in this order: terrorist attack, plane crashes and nuclear accidents. This despite the fact that these three combined have killed fewer people in the past half-century than car accidents do in any given year. | 206 |
| Jewel | I was turning 20 during my first record. Those decade birthdays always kind of cause me, it seems, to reflect, look back, and then look forward. I just was closing this period of my life where I was living in a car and scrambling my whole life to then signing a six-record deal with Atlantic. | 206 |
| Mark Hoppus | I lived in small town out in the desert and my friend used to steal his mom's car in the middle of the night. He'd drive over to my house, I'd sneak out and we'd go out to the desert and just burn things down. | 206 |
| Erma Bombeck | Never lend your car to anyone to whom you have given birth. | 207 |
| Kevin O'Leary | We have to change public perception of ex-convicts. Most Canadians don't realize that when you come out of prison, you're a complete pariah. You can't get a car loan or money from a bank to start a business. So most end up back in prison within 24 months. It's just so wrong. We need to fix this problem. | 207 |
| Stephen Colbert | When my car runs out of gas, I buy a new one. I don't want to ride around in a quitter. | 207 |
| Elon Musk | Tesla is here to stay and keep fighting for the electric car revolution. | 208 |
| Denis Leary | First of all, I have to have trucks because I live most of my time on a horse farm, so I've gotta have trucks. It's in the northeast; I've got to have pickup trucks to move snow, number one. Number two, just if I'm driving, I don't have to have an SUV, but I want a big car. | 208 |
| Nancy Gibbs | Our children will outwit us if they want; for when it comes to technology, they hold the higher ground. Unlike other tools passed carefully and ceremonially from one generation to the next - the sharp scissors, the car keys - this is one they understand better than we do. | 208 |
| Paul McCartney | When you first get money, you buy all these things so no one thinks you're mean, and you spread it around. You get a chauffeur and you find yourself thrown around the back of this car and you think, I was happier when I had my own little car! I could drive myself! | 208 |
| Penn Jillette | My hair is way, way long. I've hitchhiked across the country a zillion times. I've ridden in every car. I was never a hippie. It takes more than long hair. | 208 |
| Ashley Tisdale | I'm someone who's always on the go and crazy busy, so I like to keep snacks in my car and at the office, and Cracker Jack'd is a really yummy snack that I love. I definitely am a big snacker. | 208 |
| Steve Case | The idea that maybe you don't have to own a car if you only need one occasionally may catch on, just like time-sharing caught on in real estate. | 208 |
| Julia Roberts | My boyfriend keeps telling me I've got to own things. So, first I bought this car. And then he told me I oughta get a house. 'Why a house?' 'Well, you gotta have a place to park the car.' | 209 |
| Anthony Bourdain | When I was writing 'Kitchen Confidential,' I was in my 40s, I had never paid rent on time, I was 10 years behind on my taxes, I had never owned my own furniture or a car. | 210 |
| Lindsay Lohan | I want to be remembered for the work that I've done, rather than the car accidents that I've gotten into, the men that I've not dated - or the man that I have. | 210 |
| Marc Andreessen | Google is working on self-driving cars, and they seem to work. People are so bad at driving cars that computers don't have to be that good to be much better. | 210 |
| Adam Carolla | I swear my car won't run unless I'm picking my nose: At least, I'm that superstitious about it, so I don't want to take any chances. | 210 |
| Mark Haddon | I am really interested in eccentric minds. It's rather like being fascinated by how cars work. It's really boring if your car works all the time. But as soon as something happens, you get the bonnet up. If someone has an abnormal or dysfunctional state of mind, you get the bonnet up. | 210 |
| Brad Goreski | I sing in full voice in the car and have a tendency to harmonize badly. | 211 |
| DMX | When I was a kid, nobody in my family had a car. And I didn't have many toys. The only toys I had were the ones I would steal. | 211 |
| Diablo Cody | Fact: The new '90210' is cooler than the old '90210.' It's the lithe, streamlined Skipper to the elder series' venerable Barbie. Gone are the traditional parents - they've been replaced by a hipster mom n' pop who get busted necking in the car. | 211 |
| Kristin Davis | I drank a lot when I was a teenager and I don't drink any more, because that's when I thought, you know, I'm gonna end up a car wreck. | 211 |
| David Attenborough | I don't run a car, have never run a car. I could say that this is because I have this extremely tender environmentalist conscience, but the fact is I hate driving. | 212 |
| Marshall McLuhan | The car has become the carapace, the protective and aggressive shell, of urban and suburban man. | 212 |
| Michio Kaku | In the future, you'll simply jump into your car, turn on the Internet, turn on a movie and sit back and relax and turn on the automatic pilot, and the car will drive itself. | 212 |
| Robert Plant | Whenever I have bid a hasty goodbye to a loved one, I've always made sure that my record collection was safely stored away in the boot of the car. | 212 |
| Umberto Eco | We invented the car, and it made it easier for us to crash and die. If I gave a car to my grandfather, he would die in five minutes, while I have grown up slowly to accept speed. | 212 |
| Demetri Martin | People and squirrels are very different. Most people will not argue that. But I find that there is one situation in which they're very similar. And that is: when I am driving towards them in my car. Then they're kind of hard to tell apart - especially if the human is kind of hairy. | 213 |
| Andrea Bocelli | In my iPod, there are many operas, from A to Z. I have 'Aida' and 'Boheme' and 'Butterfly' and 'Cavalleria'. My passion is for opera, but when I'm in the car, I listen to everything. | 213 |
| Douglas Coupland | Canadians can easily 'pass for American' as long as we don't accidentally use metric measurements or apologize when hit by a car. | 213 |
| Ed Sheeran | If I can put on my album in a car or on my headphones and listen to the whole thing and love it, that's what I'm going to be happy putting out there. | 213 |
| Stevie Wonder | Sometimes I wish I could drive a car, but I'm gonna drive a car one day, so I don't worry about that. | 213 |
| Twiggy | Back in the '60s, there was a car sticker that read, 'Forget Oxfam, Feed Twiggy,' but I ate like a horse. | 213 |
| Joan Collins | The body is like a car: the older you become the more care you have to take care of it - and you don't leave a Ferrari out in the sun. | 213 |
| Russell Baker | Is fuel efficiency really what we need most desperately? I say that what we really need is a car that can be shot when it breaks down. | 213 |
| Karl Pilkington | I drive a car, like an adult. Not brilliantly. I'm not great. | 214 |
| Hill Harper | The media is convincing people that if you have that 'next thing,' that diamond, the right car, then you'd be happier. | 214 |
| Nathan Myhrvold | Politicians don't like to face unpleasant realities. In truth, nobody does, but as individuals, we have no choice; if we neglect to plan ahead, we are held accountable. Fail to meet your responsibilities at work, and you get fired. Ignore your car's gas gauge, and you get stranded. | 214 |
| Rita Mae Brown | You sell a screenplay like you sell a car. If someone drives it off a cliff, that's it. | 214 |
| Shakira | I did not want to spend the rest of my life not being able to ride in a nice car. | 215 |
| Taylor Momsen | The thing people don't understand is that touring or travelling or whatever you do in my position means you go to all these cool places all over the world, but you see everything from a car window. You don't get to see much of the city or meet people at all. | 215 |
| Eckhart Tolle | When you get into your car, shut the door and be there for just half a minute. Breathe, feel the energy inside your body, look around at the sky, the trees. The mind might tell you, 'I don't have time.' But that's the mind talking to you. Even the busiest person has time for 30 seconds of space. | 216 |
| Henny Youngman | I know a man who doesn't pay to have his trash taken out. How does he get rid of his trash? He gift wraps it, and puts in into an unlocked car. | 216 |
| Kid Rock | I didn't come from a trailer park. I grew up middle class and my dad had money and my mom made my lunch. I got a car when I was sixteen. I'm proud of that. | 216 |
| Marc Andreessen | Ten to 20 years out, driving your car will be viewed as equivalently immoral as smoking cigarettes around other people is today. | 216 |
| Marlee Matlin | It was my father who instilled the 'never say no' attitude I carry around with me today, and who instilled in me a sense of wonder, always taking us on adventures in the car, never telling us the destination. | 216 |
| Tom Felton | It's shocking to say, but the cinema is quite a while away from me, and I haven't got a car yet. | 216 |
| Elizabeth Warren | When billionaire car dealers or manufacturers pay for ambassadorships, at least they pay with money earned by selling something of value. | 217 |
| Steve Jobs | Most people have no concept of how an automatic transmission works, yet they know how to drive a car. You don't have to study physics to understand the laws of motion to drive a car. You don't have to understand any of this stuff to use Macintosh. | 218 |
| Billy Joel | I've crashed my car three times. | 218 |
| Victoria Beckham | My first-ever car, my parents bought me a red Fiat Uno. I was 17 and just so happy to have a car, so I was very fortunate that my parents were in a position to get me one - it was a secondhand car, but I was just so happy to have it. | 218 |
| Elon Musk | My opinion is it's a bridge too far to go to fully autonomous cars. | 219 |
| Bono | I accept the Old Testament as more of an action movie: blood, car chases, evacuations, a lot of special effects, seas dividing, mass murder, adultery. The children of God are running amok, wayward. Maybe that's why they're so relatable. | 219 |
| Marshall McLuhan | Mass transportation is doomed to failure in North America because a person's car is the only place where he can be alone and think. | 219 |
| Henny Youngman | My brother was a lifeguard in a car wash. | 219 |
| Kate Moss | My daughter Lila loves the smell of gasoline - she always says, 'Mummy, keep the door open,' when I'm filling up the car. I've heard it is one of the most preferred scents in the world - maybe that's something to study for my next fragrance! | 219 |
| Elon Musk | Selling an electric sports car creates an opportunity to fundamentally change the way America drives. | 220 |
| P. J. O'Rourke | I come from Toledo, Ohio, a town that has been hurt badly by the shift of the automobile business towards Japan. And yet I remember how the car workers lived in the neighborhood that I grew up in. My father was a car salesman, and I remember how we lived. I remember how modestly we lived. | 220 |
| Chris Evans | If your goal is to be the biggest movie star in the world, a 10-movie contract is gold. It was never my goal. Up until now, I made movies - and I have a nice house, a nice car. I'm fortunate, happy and grateful. Life is good. | 220 |
| George Clooney | I probably wouldn't be a good spokesman for an electric car, because I'll still get on a private jet, and one flight on a private jet undoes all my electric-car good deeds. | 220 |
| Steven Wright | I replaced the headlights in my car with strobe lights, so it looks like I'm the only one moving. | 221 |
| Lady Gaga | The only big things I've purchased are my dad's heart valve and a Rolls-Royce for my parents, for their anniversary. And that was only because my dad had a Lady Gaga license plate on our old car and it was making me crazy because he was getting followed everywhere, so I bought him a new car. | 221 |
| Mindy Kaling | I think a lot of writers, male and female, write as if their parents were killed in a car accident when they were 2, and they have no one to hold accountable. And unfortunately, I don't have that. I have parents who I care about what they think. | 221 |
| Roger Ebert | If a movie is really working, you forget for two hours your Social Security number and where your car is parked. You are having a vicarious experience. You are identifying, in one way or another, with the people on the screen. | 221 |
| Vint Cerf | The Internet of Things tell us that a lot of computer-enabled appliances and devices are going to become part of this system, too: appliances that you use around the house, that you use in your office, that you carry around with yourself or in the car. That's the Internet of Things that's coming. | 221 |
| Julian Casablancas | L.A.'s kind of, like, seven really cool towns. It's so laid-back. If you go in the right spot, you can walk around, and you don't need a car. | 221 |
| Steven Wright | I had to stop driving my car for a while... the tires got dizzy. | 222 |
| Dennis Rodman | At least 50 times. I've jumped off a building, jumped off a cliff in a car. I've been in bedrooms when women came in with knives and guns. | 222 |
| Tom Waits | You know what I really love? The CD players in a car. How when you put the CD right up by the slot, it actually takes it out of your hand, like it's hungry. It pulls it in, and you feel like it wants more silver discs. | 222 |
| Bill Gates | If GM had kept up with technology like the computer industry has, we would all be driving $25 cars that got 1,000 MPG. | 223 |
| Steven Wright | I have an answering machine in my car. It says, I'm home now. But leave a message and I'll call when I'm out. | 223 |
| Anthony Bourdain | The Italians and Spanish, the Chinese and Vietnamese see food as part of a larger, more essential and pleasurable part of daily life. Not as an experience to be collected or bragged about - or as a ritual like filling up a car - but as something else that gives pleasure, like sex or music, or a good nap in the afternoon. | 223 |
| Richard Branson | When I was four, my mother insisted I get out of the car and find my own way home. Although I got lost, I did find my way home. It taught me the value of independence at an early age. | 224 |
| John Mayer | I look away at car crashes, and I know people who look away at car crashes, because it makes us uncomfortable to watch other people in pain. | 224 |
| Robert Kiyosaki | Bad debt is debt that makes you poorer. I count the mortgage on my home as bad debt, because I'm the one paying on it. Other forms of bad debt are car payments, credit card balances, or other consumer loans. | 224 |
| James McAvoy | I'm probably more dangerous in a car than I am on a motorbike; on a bike I'm very mindful of the fact that if you make a mistake, you're dead. | 224 |
| Marc Jacobs | It just seemed too weird to me. I don't know, maybe they were smoking a joint in the car downstairs from their parents' apartment. I had to go that far to put together a scenario of how they could have possibly recognized me. | 224 |
| Steven Wright | I had a friend who was a clown. When he died, all his friends went to the funeral in one car. | 225 |
| Idina Menzel | I think I hid my singing talent from a lot of my friends at school because I didn't want to alienate anyone. If everyone was singing along in the car to a Madonna song, I didn't join in because when we're younger we're afraid of sticking out or showing off, when in fact we should own those things that make us really unique. | 225 |
| Lee Iacocca | Chrysler builds great cars. | 225 |
| Ice Cube | My worst ever car was a green Datsun B210, back when they called it 'Datsun' - now it's 'Nissan.' Very unsexy, unattractive. Girls hated the car. I was embarrassed to even be in it... but it was my transportation. | 226 |
| Marilyn vos Savant | Be able to back up a car for a considerable distance in a straight line and back out of a driveway. | 226 |
| Jimmy Fallon | We had the guys from X Men 2 do the cameras. They had a 360 camera that would go from one car, up in the air and over to another car in a continuous shot while the film was still rolling, going 90 mph. | 302 |
| Dave Barry | Auto racing is boring except when a car is going at least 172 miles per hour upside down. | 303 |
| Al Gore | Consider what kind of car you get. Buy cars and other products that have the least impact environmentally. | 303 |
| Selena Gomez | I drive the same car that I've driven since I was 16. That's who I am. | 304 |
| David Byrne | You can know or not know how a car runs and still enjoy riding in a car. | 304 |
| Queen Latifah | I've loved car racing all my life. I watch NASCAR regularly, and drag racing because we have Raceway Park in New Jersey. I think I got it from my father. | 304 |
| Christopher Walken | Even in the limo, I buckle my seatbelt. I got that seatbelt on before the car moves. | 305 |
| Eric Cantona | I have a car but it's not important. | 305 |
| John Lasseter | I'm a car nut. My father was a parts manager at a Chevrolet dealership. | 305 |
| Simon Cowell | The only magazines I read are car magazines. | 305 |
| Richard Branson | My mother was determined to make us independent. When I was four years old, she stopped the car a few miles from our house and made me find my own way home across the fields. I got hopelessly lost. | 306 |
| Thomas Friedman | Sometimes, when my wife and I were going out to dinner, I would take my laptop with me and work in the car, so as to take advantage of the half hour going and coming. | 306 |
| Helen Mirren | Wherever I am in the world, if I get free time when I'm filming I always hire a car, take to the road, drive for miles and explore. | 307 |
| Elon Musk | I think Tesla will most likely develop its own autopilot system for the car, as I think it should be camera-based, not Lidar-based. However, it is also possible that we do something jointly with Google. | 308 |
| Michael Caine | The greatest luxury is not driving. I didn't own a car until I was 30, and that was a Rolls-Royce, so it was cheaper to insure a chauffeur. I never want to drive again. My mind is always on other things. I hate parking, and I'm very short-tempered and would get road rage, I'm sure. | 308 |
| Eleanor Roosevelt | Campaign behavior for wives: Always be on time. Do as little talking as humanly possible. Lean back in the parade car so everybody can see the president. | 309 |
| Elie Wiesel | It all happened so fast. The ghetto. The deportation. The sealed cattle car. The fiery altar upon which the history of our people and the future of mankind were meant to be sacrificed. | 309 |
| Woody Allen | I have bad reflexes. I was once run over by a car being pushed by two guys. | 309 |
| Suze Orman | The most important loan to pay is your student loan. It's more important than your mortgage, car and credit card payments. You cannot discharge student loan debt in the majority of cases. | 309 |
| Dave Barry | Dogs feel very strongly that they should always go with you in the car, in case the need should arise for them to bark violently at nothing right in your ear. | 310 |
| Trent Reznor | If I go onstage, I want to give people everything they want and more. I'll wash their car for them on their way out. | 310 |
| David Lynch | Transcendental meditation is like a car, a vehicle that allows you to go within. It's a mental technique. | 311 |
| Tori Amos | I remember driving to North Carolina when I was a little girl in a snowstorm to get down to my mom's family in the Carolinas. There were chains on the car - it was the late sixties - and we were just singing in the car. Christmas carols. | 311 |
| Erma Bombeck | Car designers are just going to have to come up with an automobile that outlasts the payments. | 312 |
| Bo Bennett | If you think Abraham Lincoln became famous for inventing the town car, it is time to spend a few hours on history. | 312 |
| Evel Knievel | I really think we should pass a law in every state, I don't care whether it takes the independence away from an old person or not. You shouldn't be driving a car if you're over the age of 80. Maybe even less than that. | 312 |
| Jimmy Fallon | I sing in the car if I'm in LA, because you're like soundproofed. | 312 |
| Barack Obama | I miss Saturday morning, rolling out of bed, not shaving, getting into my car with my girls, driving to the supermarket, squeezing the fruit, getting my car washed, taking walks. | 314 |
| Elon Musk | Self-driving cars are the natural extension of active safety and obviously something we should do. | 314 |
| Erma Bombeck | Marriage has no guarantees. If that's what you're looking for, go live with a car battery. | 314 |
| Kim Kardashian | White is actually one of my favorite colors. I have a white car. I love white. | 315 |
| Steven Wright | I play the harmonica. The only way I can play is if I get my car going really fast, and stick it out the window. | 315 |
| James Surowiecki | Unlike fuel-economy standards, the most common method of reducing demand for oil over the past thirty years, a gas tax doesn't tell people what kind of car to drive. It simply raises the price of gasoline and lets people adjust their behavior accordingly. | 315 |
| Dave Barry | I want a pit crew... I hate the procedure I currently have to go through when I have car problems. | 319 |
| Suze Orman | The prenup needs to be drawn up months before the wedding, not days - it's not something you slap together and sign in the car on the way to the ceremony. A shotgun prenup might not hold up in court. | 324 |
| Nelson Mandela | I would wear the blue overalls of the fieldworker and often wore round, rimless glasses known as Mazzawati teaglasses. I had a car, and I wore a chauffeur's cap with my overalls. The pose of chauffeur was convenient because I could travel under the pretext of driving my master's car. | 325 |
| Erma Bombeck | It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows. | 325 |
| Wayne Dyer | My favorite affirmation when I feel stuck or out of sorts is: Whatever I need is already here, and it is all for my highest good. Jot this down and post it conspicuously throughout your home, on the dashboard of your car, at your office, on your microwave oven, and even in front of your toilets! | 325 |
| Anne Lamott | I like the desert for short periods of time, from inside a car, with the windows rolled up, and the doors locked. I prefer beach resorts with room service. | 325 |
| Billy Corgan | I'm sort of like a lame, single guy in a red sports car. | 403 |
| Isabel Allende | I read on my iPad when I travel. I listen to audiobooks in the car. I read books in my bedroom, where I have a comfortable couch, a lamp and two dogs to keep me warm. | 404 |
| Hugh Jackman | I had a fairly enlightened dad, though if you looked at his resume, it might not seem that way. He was a chartered accountant for Price Waterhouse. He was strict, and we had a very ordered life. To this day, I am the least materialistic person I know, because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car. | 406 |
| Penn Jillette | To drive a car in rural America is freedom. Before I had a car, I'd never seen a rock and roll show, I'd never seen a comic or a show. | 407 |
| Elon Musk | Yeah, well I think anyone who likes fast cars will love the Tesla. And it has fantastic handling by the way. I mean this car will crush a Porsche on the track, just crush it. So if you like fast cars, you'll love this car. And then oh, by the way, it happens to be electric and it's twice the efficiency of a Prius. | 408 |
| Clint Eastwood | You can't stop everything from happening. But we've gotten to a point where we're certainly trying. If a car doesn't have four hundred air bags in it, then it's no good. | 409 |
| Gore Vidal | The greatest pleasure when I started making money was not buying cars or yachts but finding myself able to have as many freshly typed drafts as possible. | 417 |
| John Lydon | I don't have any expensive habits. I'm not a car collector or any of that nonsense. But I'd love to be incredibly wealthy for no reason at all. | 418 |
| Tom Stoppard | Theater in New York is nearer to the street. In London, you have to go deep into the building, usually, to reach the place where theater happens. On Broadway, only the fire doors separate you from the sidewalk, and you're lucky if the sound of a police car doesn't rip the envelope twice a night. | 420 |
| Elon Musk | Tesla is becoming a real car company. | 421 |
| Muhammad Ali | Life is a gamble. You can get hurt, but people die in plane crashes, lose their arms and legs in car accidents; people die every day. Same with fighters: some die, some get hurt, some go on. You just don't let yourself believe it will happen to you. | 422 |
| Joan Rivers | I had a friend who was a plastic surgeon, so he would do little things. I never had, like, a full thing. So I would go in maybe once every two or three years, and he'd do a little here, a little there; tweak you, like you tweak your car. Then I became the plastic surgery poster girl. | 423 |
| Douglas Coupland | If God drives a car, He'd drive a 1973 Ford LTD Brougham sedan with a claret-colored vinyl roof, with oxblood leather upholstery and an opera window. | 426 |
| Dolly Parton | I'm gonna be making records anyway, even if I had to sell 'em out of the trunk of my car. I'm that kind of musician and singer. | 505 |
| Pope Francis | My choices, including those related to the day-to-day aspects of life, like the use of a modest car, are related to a spiritual discernment that responds to a need that arises from looking at things, at people and from reading the signs of the times. Discernment in the Lord guides me in my way of governing. | 506 |
| Elon Musk | A Prius is not a true hybrid, really. The current Prius is, like, 2 percent electric. It's a gasoline car with slightly better mileage. | 511 |
| Michael Moore | I drive an American car. It's a Chrysler. That's not an endorsement. It's more like a cry for pity. | 512 |
| George Bernard Shaw | What Englishman will give his mind to politics as long as he can afford to keep a motor car? | 516 |
| Elon Musk | Nobody wants to buy a $60,000 electric Civic. But people will pay $90,000 for an electric sports car. | 523 |
| Elon Musk | It is definitely true that the fundamental enabling technology for electric cars is lithium-ion as a cell chemistry technology. In the absence of that, I don't think it's possible to make an electric car that is competitive with a gasoline car. | 526 |
| Elon Musk | We could definitely make a flying car - but that's not the hard part. The hard part is, how do you make a flying car that's super safe and quiet? Because if it's a howler, you're going to make people very unhappy. | 606 |
| Marilyn Manson | I was a pizza delivery boy at the Pizza Oven in Canton. I wanted to get fired so bad, I actually wrecked the delivery car, but they wouldn't fire me because I was the only person they had working there. | 621 |
| Taylor Swift | Rebellion is what you make of it. When you've been on a tour bus for two months straight, and then you get in your car and drive wherever you want, that can feel rebellious. | 806 |
| Joyce Meyer | Things in themselves have no life in them. A car can't comfort or encourage you. A house means nothing if there's no life and love inside. | 918 |
| Noam Chomsky | I remember at the age of five travelling on a trolley car with my mother past a group of women on a picket line at a textile plant, seeing them being viciously beaten by security people. So that kind of thing stayed with me. | 1013 |
| P. J. O'Rourke | The car provided Americans with an enviable standard of living. You could not get a steady job with high wages and health and retirement benefits working on the General Livestock Corporation assembly line putting udders on cows. | 1017 |
| P. J. O'Rourke | By the end of the 1950s, American cars were so reliable that their reliability went without saying even in car ads. Thousands of them bear testimony to this today, still running on the roads of Cuba though fueled with nationalized Venezuelan gasoline and maintained with spit and haywire. | 1018 |
| Bill Gates | When Ford sells a car, a dealer isn't allowed to take out the engine and put a different one in. When a newsstand sells the Washington Post, no one can go to the newsstand and pay them to rip out the classified section and put their own classified section in - if they could, they would do so. | 1303 |
