I'm very happy because I won a lot. I've won races and lived in a world that just gave me joy, so I remember it very positively.

Riding a race bike is an art - a thing that you do because you feel something inside.

The most important thing is to have a good relationship with the bike... you have to understand what she wants. I think of a motorcycle as a woman, and I know that sounds silly, but it's true.

To be a great motorbike racer, the most important thing is passion for the bike.

The speed is something dangerous but very exciting.

Giving yourself threads doesn't mean you don't believe in yourself in my opinion.

Maybe the bike is more dangerous, but the passion for the car for me is second to the bike.

I feel 100% a Yamaha rider in my heart. I had a long career and raced with several factory bikes, but the highlight of my career is undoubtedly with Yamaha.

I'm Valentino Rossi. And I want to be a person, not an icon.

Our sport is dangerous. We risk the life out there, so we need to stay calm and focused and leave all the rest out.

But I could also start F1 or rallying. I love rallying much more.

I can never be satisfied I always look for more.

He that believeth not shall be damned.

What is actual is actual only for one time. And only for one place.

Memory is the mother of all wisdom.

The word book acted as a transient stimulus

Just imagine dressing the two handsomest men in the world, and then getting this!

One of the dirty little secrets of my job is that I don't do ANY food or cooking shows.

I couldnt be a writer without hope. I think I became a writer because Im pretty optimistic.

A true leader doesn't just bring troubles; but bring solutions.

Let's put it this way: I am confident that Schengen will continue to be defended. And when it comes to repatriations, we have the same opinion.
