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.

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.

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.

I think you have to feel comfortable with your car. You have to go into turn one every lap with confidence. You have to be sure of yourself and your equipment.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

It's a never ending battle of making your cars better and also trying to be better yourself.

It's a lot of work to keep reinventing yourself and coming up with new stuff but that's what it takes to be in show business.

I could play it safe by recording songs that are familiar but am I expanding myself as an artist by doing covers? It's a catch-22. It's called show business: The word 'business' is in it and you've got to be a businessman. But then again you have to be true to yourself as an artist.

I learned you have to fight for yourself in the picture business.

Don't think of yourself as a woman in business.

If you deprive yourself of outsourcing and your competitors do not you're putting yourself out of business.

The hardest thing about being in this business is just being able to be yourself. People act like there's this one set of rules to follow to be a pop star and I think 'Well you say I'm a pop star so maybe that's not true.'

There are pros and cons of experience. A con is that you can't look at the business with a fresh pair of eyes and as objectively as if you were a new CEO. Fire yourself on a Friday night and come in on Monday morning as if a search firm put you there as a turn-around leader. Can you be objective and make the bold change?

There is no substitute for accurate knowledge. Know yourself know your business know your men.

To me business isn't about wearing suits or pleasing stockholders. It's about being true to yourself your ideas and focusing on the essentials.

The golden rule for every business man is this: 'Put yourself in your customer's place.'

In business for yourself not by yourself.

The movies are the only business where you can go out front and applaud yourself.

In this business by the time you realize you're in trouble it's too late to save yourself. Unless you're running scared all the time you're gone.

If I love you what business is it of yours?

If the career you have chosen has some unexpected inconvenience console yourself by reflecting that no career is without them.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority it is time to pause and reflect.

You need only reflect that one of the best ways to get yourself a reputation as a dangerous citizen these days is to go about repeating the very phrases which our founding fathers used in the struggle for independence.

It's easy to get wrapped up in sharing everyday life with a partner. It's fun to get lost in love and romance. It's the best. But holding on to yourself while doing that is the most important thing.

You owe it to yourself to be the best person possible. Because if you are others will want to be with you want to provide you with the things you want in exchange for what you're giving to them.

A lot of the fun lies in trying to penetrate the mystery and this is best done by saying over the lines to yourself again and again till they pass through the stage of sounding like nonsense and finally return to a full sense that had at first escaped notice.
