“You need to have proper management if you’re going to move forward.”

Women should be all dressed in white like all the other domestic appliances.

I can’t remember a single occasion when I have been kind to a journalist.

If you’re going to take the attitude, I don’t think it will work, you will never do anything.

But when it comes to F1 I am a huge Lewis [Hamilton] fan because he is a super promoter of the sport. From a pure business aspect – sorry Nico if I have to say this – you are not so good for my business.

I have a lot of faith in justice systems around the world even though there were cases in the past where that faith wasn’t justified in some countries.

I have 100 percent confidence in the German judicial system.

[When I’ll be old I see myself] as a world champion, on a big farm with an Italian-style, big family with a whole bunch of grandchildren. And the foundations for that I have already laid!

Lewis [Hamilton] is a hero in the UK. The British love Formula One. Sebastian (Vettel) is also not doing much for F1. People hardly recognize him on the street.

Our sport is ruled whether it’s for good and bad, or whatever, for technical things. There’s lots of teams out there that could and should have done better if they’d have had technical things. I suppose in the end that basically revolves around how much money they’re gonna get.

When people want to built new tracks, they want to look at Silverstone. We don’t want it built like that. It’s quite embarrassing.

I’ve never told anybody this, so I don’t know if maybe you shouldn’t print it, but I’ve made plans. I’m only going to continue doing this for another 25 years.

It’s the best thing to happen to a sport, that you have a superstar. In football there is always something to write about the Beckhams, same as people want to write about Rooney or Hooney or whatever his bloody name is.

It’s not as easy as that… it’s disappointing to think that all these countries spend a lot of money trying to get the Olympics.

A wise man who was always helpful to me: Mr (Enzo) Ferrari. He always supported me.

I have always been happy to have daughters rather than sons. You never really can be mad at girls for anything in life.

I simply scraped together all my experience and put it into the sport.

Cars are little privacy cocoons that we take with us. If you could refuel while driving you could, theoretically, stay moving forever.

As companies move to web-based computing they get a lot more servers, which are difficult to manage and control. All kinds of problems can arise – security, quality and worms.

If we are going to do anything significant with life, we sometimes have to move away from it- beyond the usual measurements.

I love Botox, I absolutely love it. I get it minimally so I can still move my face. But I really do think it’s a savior.

Congress is functioning the way the Founding Fathers intended-not very well. They understood that if you move too quickly, our democracy will be less responsible to the majority.

There’s a cinematic quality that happens in my mind when I hear something that really lands. An album is just a journal of a life moving through time.

Death Cab is a militantly analog band. We’ll continue moving forward with our sound, but there will be no crossover.

Time is a circus, always packing up and moving away.
