Cornering is like bringing a woman to a climax. Both you and the car must work together. You start to enter the area of excitement at the corner, you set up a pace which is right for the car and after you've told it it is coming along with you, you guide it along at a rhythm which has by now become natural. Only after you've cleared the corner you can both take pleasure in knowing it's gone well.

On winning the Indy 500- It sure didn't make me the million dollars people said it would, but it sure made my ex-wife happy.

There are only two things no man will admit he can't do well: drive a car and make love.
