Either you run the day or the day runs you.

If you don't like how things are, change it! You're not a tree.

Learning is the beginning of wealth. Learning is the beginning of health. Learning is the beginning of spirituality. Searching and learning is where the miracle process all begins.

If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.

Take time to gather up the past so that you will be able to draw from your experience and invest them in the future.

If someone is going down the wrong road, he doesn't need motivation to speed him up. What he needs is education to turn him around.

The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keeps out the joy.

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.

Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you.

If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you will have to settle for the ordinary.

Work harder on yourself than you do on your job.

If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you. If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us.

Labor gives birth to ideas.

Words do two major things: They provide food for the mind and create light for understanding and awareness.

Happiness radiates like the fragrance from a flower and draws all good things towards you.

Being happy is of the utmost importance. Success in anything is through happiness.

Problems or successes, they all are the results of our own actions. Karma. The philosophy of action is that no one else is the giver of peace or happiness. One's own karma, one's own actions are responsible to come to bring either happiness or success or whatever.

What we have done, the result of that comes to us whenever it comes, either today, tomorrow, hundred years later, hundred lives later, whatever, whatever. And so, it's our own karma. That is why that philosophy in every religion: Killing is sin. Killing is sin in every religion.

When the conscious mind expands to embrace deeper levels of thinking, the thought wave becomes more powerful and results in added energy and intelligence.

The knowledge from an enlightened person breaks on the hard rocks of ignorance.

The philosophy of life is this: Life is not a struggle, not a tension... Life is bliss. It is eternal wisdom, eternal existence.

At the end of the day, the most overwhelming key to a child's success is the positive involvement of parents.

Men naturally despise those who court them, but respect those who do not give way to them.

History is Philosophy teaching by example.

Ignorance is bold and knowledge reserved.

If you're so afraid of failure, you will never succeed. You have to take chances.

Do it no matter what. If you believe in it, it is something very honorable. If somebody around you or your family does not understand it, then that's their problem. But if you do have a passion, an honest passion, just do it.

Motor racing is like one big family, ultimately, and when you come back to it, that's really what it feels like.

I love technology - yes, I have fallen in love with older cars, but I'm all for new technology.

It seemed like whenever I got a bona fide offer from Ferrari, I couldn't do it. And vice versa - when I was ready, their seats were taken. We always had a relationship, but what's important is that I pretty much started my F1 career with them and ended it there, too.

A father-son relationship is strong, like no other teammates. You could be straightforward with one another.

The most important thing at Daytona is, are you going to have friends willing to work with you during the race as far as drafting? You've got to have friends out there. You can't do it alone. You form those relationships as the race moves along.

The day of parochialism in sports is over. The world is too small for what people like to call 'the good old days.' Fans want the best, wherever they come from.
