I liked watching Rossi, his style, his colours and everything. He was someone I looked up to and until now he is still my only hero. He is the king of motorbikes and most people like Rossi mainly because he comes across as a pretty fun and good character. He is cool and has a good style and look.

I’m Mickey Mouse. They don’t know who’s inside the suit.

Opposition may become sweet to a man when he has christened it persecution.

It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is.

Some kinds of animals burrow in the ground; others do not. Some animals are nocturnal, as the owl and the bat; others use the hours of daylight. There are tame animals and wild animals.
