“The story of Lewis Hamilton the racing driver is so much more than wha...” — David Coulthard Quote

The story of Lewis Hamilton the racing driver is so much more than what happens on the track - you get an insight into what's going on in his life day to day. It's such a contrast with someone like Fernando Alonso, for example, about whom we know almost nothing apart from his sporting record. Hamilton lays himself bare.

One of the things I noticed from working with people like Prost, Senna, Mansell - great champions, all of them - was that they all knew a work ethic that was a real education to me as a young guy.

I never want to put myself in a position where I'm frightened. I just don't do things that frighten me.

I used to wear a kilt to all black-tie events but now I only wear it at non-U.K. events. As a British citizen and a Scotsman, it's nice to wear your national dress but it is easier to throw on a black dinner suit and, at a U.K. event, there are always enough Scots to do the tartan thing.

The life of a female politician makes it hard to combine personal life and work, but I think it is almost a patriotic duty to have children.

The foundations of modern civil-rights law are exceptionally secure. Conservative judges nibble around the edges sometimes, and people still debate the constitutionality of affirmative-action programs. But almost no one seriously argues about the basic meaning or legitimacy of core civil-rights protections.

People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.

So Bush certainly wasn't the greatest, and Obama has not done the job. And he's created a lot of disincentive. He's created a lot of great dissatisfaction. Regulations and regulatory is going through the roof. It's almost impossible to get anything done in the country.
