“I try to be all ears with all advice.” — Chase Elliott Quote

I try to be all ears with all advice.

Jeff Gordon is a hero and a legend of the sport, and that's something you're never going to do. You obviously have goals, and I'm going to try to be successful here at Hendrick Motorsports, and in the sport in general, but Jeff is Jeff, and there's never going to be another one.

I want to win as much as anyone else.

Whatever it is, we want to be able to win at any time. The great teams and the great drivers are capable of doing that, and I think we are capable doing that.

There's so many things you can't account for that can happen during each race. I just focus on controlling what I can.

I know the things I say go out of my own mouth and into my own ears.

I've never read it because I'd like to see one Shakespeare play that I don't know what happens. I close my ears and hum whenever I hear anything about 'Pericles, Prince of Tyre.'

For a long time, I thought when you do a box set, you're giving up; you're saying, 'OK, I don't have anything left.' But now I've listened to some of the old stuff I haven't heard in 20 to 40 years with fresh ears. It's like, 'Oh yeah, I can see where people might want to to hear some of this stuff that didn't make it onto the records.'

Occasionally and all-too-infrequently a song comes along that jolts you and you prick up your ears.
