A popular bumper sticker post-9/11, and pretty faded these days, proclaims drivers of the cars to be 'Proud to be an American.' It really should say 'Lucky to be an American,' for I doubt very much that the drivers had much say in having been born he...
I'm an off-road racecar driver. And I think every woman in my life has told me that's not a sensible hobby. But when I was growing, even more than I wanted to be funny, I wanted to be a racecar driver. That's all I thought about. I worked for a race ...
Mile tracks put more emphasis on the driver. On the longer tracks, you can drive flat out all the way around, so it's more of an engineering exercise. On a mile, you can't run flat out. You're constantly in traffic, there's more driver involvement.
[last lines] Driver: Well, sir, going home! T.E. Lawrence: Mm? [realizes that he has been addressed] Driver: Home, sir! [an army lorry passes. It carries Tommies singing a music hall ditty of the period: "Goodbye Dolly, I must leave you... "]
We are all somewhere else, during.
A deaf composer's like a cook who's lost his sense of taste. A frog that's lost its webbed feet. A truck driver with his license revoked. That would throw anybody for a loop, don't you think? But Beethoven didn't let it get to him. Sure, he must have...
Generally speaking, rural drivers are a much better behaved species than city drivers. I'm not sure whether they're intrinsically this way, or there are just fewer opportunities for them to do behave badly. You can't go around running red lights if t...
The PC is becoming a truck. Everybody is using a tablet and a phone.
I often conduct interviews in my truck.
As a driver, you want to race every lap possible, especially when you've got a good car.
Every NASCAR driver watches Formula One in the morning; they are well informed.
I'm the slowest driver in the world.
Roger: [over the radio while driving trucks] Hey, too tall, too slow, two, come back! Peter: You look my size when you're sitting in a truck. Roger: What I want to know is how we got to be in the same force with you being so large and all? Peter: Wel...
Roger: Aww, God! Oh, Jesus Christ! Peter: What is it? Roger: My bag! I left my goddamn bag in the other truck! Peter: [stops driving the truck] All right, trooper, you better screw your head on. Roger: [hyped tone] Yeah, yeah, yeah; c'mon, c'mon c'mo...
If you first take a minute, an hour or a month to let go of feeling annoyed, frustrated or critical of the person or situation that may be driving you crazy, you set yourself up for much greater leadership and personal success.
I feel like I'm a New Yorker because I really know the city. I actually tell the drivers where to go - I have this bad habit, I always question the drivers. I do that all the time because I feel like I know the best way, when really it's like, 'Yo, m...
Second cab driver: [they're chasing Capt. Culpeper] He's heading for the border. Let's stop and call the police station. Mrs. Marcus: You shut up! We're gonna get that money. Keep driving! Second cab driver: That woman is something else.
Elle Driver: Bill tells me you had a Hanzo sword once. Budd: Yeah. Elle Driver: [examining the Bride's sword] How does this one compare to that one? Budd: If you're gonna compare a Hanzo sword, you compare it to every other sword ever made... that wa...
Budd: So, which "R" you filled with? Elle Driver: What? Budd: They say the number one killer of old people is retirement. People got 'em a job to do, they tend to live a little longer so they can do it. I've always figured warriors and their enemies ...
I didn't wait for Luck. I raced after it with a truck.
