“You don't just build a car to go 600 miles an hour. You have to invent it.”

“There's no such thing as 'the last land-speed record.'”

“The fear is always there, but you learn to manage it. You have to.”

“My whole life has been a quest for speed.”

“The faster you go, the more the car wants to fly.”

“You have to be willing to put everything on the line.”

“It's an obsession. You don't choose it, it chooses you.”

“When you're traveling at that speed, the world becomes a blur. It's a surreal experience.”

“Breaking records is about pushing the human spirit to its limits.”

“I always felt I was born 50 years too late. I should have been a barnstormer.”

“Spirit of America was more than just a car; it was a symbol of what was possible.”

“The preparation is everything. The run itself is just the final exam.”

“There's a fine line between bravery and foolishness. I've walked it my whole life.”

“Every record is meant to be broken. That's the nature of progress.”
