Stirling Moss

“It is necessary to relax your muscles when you can. Relaxing your brain is fatal.”

“The first thing you do is you get in the car and you set it up. You then learn to drive it.”

“I always believed that you should be in control of the car, not the other way around.”

“If God had meant for us to walk, why did he give us feet that fit car pedals?”

“The race is won by the car that holds together the longest.”

“To achieve anything in this game you must be prepared to dabble in the boundary of disaster.”

“There are two things no man will admit he cannot do well: drive and make love.”

“Better to lose honourably in a British car than win in a foreign one.”

“A racing car is an animal with a thousand adjustments.”

“You have to be a bit of a lunatic to be a racing driver.”

“The most important thing is to have a passion for what you're doing.”

“If you're not trying to win, you're not really racing.”

“Sportsmanship, for me, is when a guy walks off the court and you really can't tell whether he won or lost, when he carries himself with pride either way.”

“I'm not a nostalgic person. I'm not one for looking back.”

“I was born to be a racing driver.”
