In karting, you turn up and drive, look at the data and go home. But I like doing more, learning about the engines and how to make them go even better.
Lando NorrisDon’t be a writer; it’s a terrible way to live your life. There’s nothing to be gained from it but poverty and obscurity and solitude. So if you have a taste for all those things, which means that you really are burning to do it, then go ahead and do it. But don’t expect anything from anybody.
Paul AusterI can’t remember what made my dad take us karting for the first time, I can’t remember really. I was into motorsport by then and I knew everything, and every driver, it was around 2009, 2008. That’s when I first properly knew about Formula One. Those were the days.
Lando NorrisBeautiful sentences pop into my head. Beautiful sentences that aren’t always absolutely accurate. Then, I have to choose between the beautiful sentence and being absolutely accurate. It can be a difficult choice.

J. ColeThe fact that the adult American Negro female emerges a formidable character is often met with amazement, distaste and even belligerance. It is seldom accepted as an inevitable outcome of the struggle won by survivors, and deserves respect if not enthusiastic acceptance.
Maya AngelouI think the F2 tyres are probably one of the hardest things to adapt to, harder than the Formula One Pirellis were to get used to.

Richard P. FeynmanA woman’s heart must be of such a size and no larger, else it must be pressed small, like Chinese feet; her happiness is to be made as cakes are, by a fixed recipe.

George LucasI’m a hard guy to live with. I’m like a caged animal. I’m up all night walking around the living room. It’s hard for me to come down from what I do.
Jim CarreyGee, its lonesome in the outfield. It’s hard to keep awake with nothing to do.
Babe RuthGod wants to help us… He loves us… we are His children. But He will not force His help on us at any time. He sees us when we struggle and fight and complain our way through things. And I believe it breaks His heart, when all we have to do is ask Him for help.
Joyce MeyerIt’s a curse. I ask God to take this away from me all the time. I do not like being an artist.

George OrwellA revolution is not a bed of roses.
Fidel CastroThe bravest sight in the world is to see a great man struggling against adversity.
Lucius Annaeus SenecaNature cannot be tricked or cheated. She will give up to you the object of your struggles only after you have paid her price.
Napoleon HillThere are few things more dreadful than dealing with a man who knows he is going under, in his own eyes, and in the eyes of others. Nothing can help that man. What is left of that man flees from what is left of human attention.
James BaldwinI’ll never make it, it will never happen, because they’re never going to hear me ‚cause they’re screaming all the time.

Jurgen KloppWe combat obstacles in order to get repose, and when got, the repose is insupportable.
Henry AdamsA black person grows up in this country – and in many places – knowing that racism will be as familiar as salt to the tongue. Also, it can be as dangerous as too much salt. I think that you must struggle for betterment for yourself and for everyone.

Lando NorrisTo be announced as a race driver for McLaren is a dream come true.
Lando NorrisI turned away from bikes when I got a bambino kart for my seventh birthday and started doing some karting, just around some cones at home, but I didn’t think at that point I knew I wanted to go into F1, it was more just for fun.
Lando NorrisAt the outset, I want to say that the suggestion that the struggle in South Africa is under the influence of foreigners or communists is wholly incorrect. I have done whatever I did because of my experience in South Africa and my own proudly felt African background, and not because of what any outsider might have said.
Nelson MandelaIt is the fight alone that pleases us, not the victory.
Blaise PascalThere is no need to worry about mere size. We do not necessarily respect a fat man more than a thin man. Sir Isaac Newton was very much smaller than a hippopotamus, but we do not on that account value him less.

David BowieFighting for one’s freedom, struggling towards being free, is like struggling to be a poet or a good Christian or a good Jew or a good Muslim or good Zen Buddhist. You work all day long and achieve some kind of level of success by nightfall, go to sleep and wake up the next morning with the job still to be done. So you start all over again.
Maya AngelouI was born in a very poor family. I used to sell tea in a railway coach as a child. My mother used to wash utensils and do lowly household work in the houses of others to earn a livelihood. I have seen poverty very closely. I have lived in poverty. As a child, my entire childhood was steeped in poverty.
Narendra ModiNo untroubled day has ever dawned for me.
