“If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street; if you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat; if you get too cold, I’ll tax the heat; if you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet.”

I used to think that having many material things would increase one’s stock of happiness. I found that to be completely untrue. The trappings don’t make the man at all.

We’re now the results of our past actions, and in the future we’ll be the results of the actions we’re performing now.

It’s by your own actions you’re able to get more in a mess or out of one. It’s your own actions that relieve or bind you.

With every mistake, we must surely be learning.

Once you realize something, then you can’t pretend you don’t know it any more.

The only thing we really have to work at in this life is how to manifest love.

It’s easier to hurt someone and make them cry, than it is to dry their eyes.

All I got to be is be happy.

Even if it’s being a Beatle for the rest of my life, it’s still only a temporary thing.

I have a problem with Porsches. They’re wonderful cars, but I know I could never live with one.

A man who has never gone to school may steal a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad.

I enjoy racing historic motorcars from the ’50s and ’60s.

I’m not afraid of death because I don’t believe in it. It’s just getting out of one car, and into another.

I’m not a collector. I don’t like the toy cupboard syndrome that causes so many good cars to evaporate.
