TO be racing in Formula One with Mclaren has been the ultimate goal for me. It's a dream come true.

You just need to be accepted for who you are and be proud of who you are and that is what I'm trying to do.

If you don't have the balls to brake late, that's your problem.

I don't aspire to be like other drivers - I aspire to be unique in my own way.

In racing there are always things you can learn, every single day. There is always space for improvement, and I think that applies to everything in life.

Obviously I am not happy but they can throw what they want at me, I will come back stronger.

My saying is; We win and lose together. I think that really does apply to both my fans, family and the team.

I was born to race and to win.

Formula One was a very dangerous sport. It still is dangerous. But the danger factor is also the exciting part.

There is an illusion that has much to do with ... most of our unhappiness. ... We expect too much.

Failing is not a problem. Not trying is a problem.

Do not crave to know the views of others, nor base your intent thereon. To think independently for yourself is a sign of fearlessness.

Indeed, a civil resister offers resistance only when peace becomes impossible.

Television can become a bit of a treadmill for directors. You come in, nobody knows you, the actors are already doing what they're doing, and you're just one of a number of directors who comes in.

It's hard to know whether certain characters come to life or not, they either come to have their own life or they don't. I've written many things in which the characters just remain inert.

I don't want to be a hero, I don't want to ever let you down.

Children ought not to be victims of the choices adults make for them.
