Our business in life is not to get ahead of others but to get ahead of ourselves.

After hurting myself like that I could not go back immediately to racing. I was in no condition mentally or physically. That helped me to strengthen myself to go through the hard times that were ahead with my business and to be successful.

The work of the individual still remains the spark that moves mankind ahead even more than teamwork.

It's human nature to gripe but I'm going ahead and doing the best I can.

The work ahead will be hard. These times demand the best of us - all of us but we can do this. Together we can do this. We can get this country working again. We can get this economy growing again. We can make the safety net safe again. We can do this.

Quit while you're ahead. All the best gamblers do.

As we look forward to freedom the shining city on the hill and the best days of America lying ahead it is the men and women in uniform who protect defend and make us proud to whom we should look and give thanks every night.

You always want to quit while you are ahead. You don't want to be like a fighter who stays too long in the ring until you're not performing at your best.

Artistic qualities that once seemed undeniable don't seem so now. Sometimes these fluctuations are only fickleness of taste momentary glitches in an artist's work or an artist getting ahead of his audience (it took me ten years to catch up to Albert Oehlen). Other times however these problems mean there's something wrong with the art.

An artist is never ahead of his time but most people are far behind theirs.
