In my hometown there is a pub named after me - The Frome Flyer on Jenson Avenue. How cool is that?!

If I ever have a son, and if he wants to follow in my footsteps in Formula 1, my main responsibility will be to point out some of the negatives.

We all drive differently and have different styles. For me I need a car I can develop beneath me and feel comfortable in. If the car feels neutral and unbalanced it doesn't work for me.

To understand the intensity of driving an F1 car, you have to be in it.

It doesn't matter how much money you've got, or how many connections, there's always something you want that's out of reach.

I always think I should try to get to bed early, but then I can't stop myself from watching telly and fiddling around on the net.

I haven't got the yacht any more. The cost of running it was crazy. But it was so much fun while I had it. I don't regret it.

My father did everything for me. He was awesome.

I love cycling, running and swimming. In recent years I've competed regularly in triathlons, which means I don't find the physical side of driving a struggle any more.

When you're in a car which can win every race, or fight for a win every race, that is pressure.

My time at Honda was amazing. Some of my best times in Formula One, actually. I might not have won races, just one race, but I had a lot of fun.

Every joy is like a piece of mirror: always reflecting..

Every given moment calls for you to examine the thoughts and beliefs in your mind to ensure that they are constantly in favor of your true destiny on earth.

Knowing one day, I will be gone, makes me live fuller life.

Regret is a toxin that I try not to allow in my body.

Hell is the special pain that dwells in that loss which you yourself have caused

I think being able to identify with young people and...their capacity to change the world and shake things up. I think that's the greatest strength.

I think anyone who has an opinion, and voices it, will offend someone.

In America, we have to learn to be patient enough to figure out what somebody is saying. Somebody might actually be saying something.

I like to keep myself wrapped in layers of sleep and wait for the geraniums.

God forgive me for having thought it possible that a schoolmaster could be out and out a rational being.
