He that’s secure is not safe.

In skating over thin ice our safety is in our speed.

Precaution is better than cure.

For it is mutual trust, even more than mutual interest that holds human associations together. Our friends seldom profit us but they make us feel safe. Marriage is a scheme to accomplish exactly that same end.

I have often been asked what I think about at the moment of take-off. Of course, no pilot sits and feels his pulse as he flies. He has to be part of the machine. If he thinks of anything but the task in hand, then trouble is probably just around the corner.

Lightning is something which, again, we would rather avoid.

A safe fairyland is untrue to all worlds.

We must do everything in our power to cease the behaviour that makes children everywhere feel afraid.

American stuntmen are smart – they think about safety. When they do a jump in a car, they calculate everything: the speed, the distance… But in Hong Kong, we don’t know how to count. Everything we do is a guess. If you’ve got the guts, you do it. All of my stuntmen have gotten hurt.

I don’t know driving in another way which isn’t risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other’s.

We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.

Clothes if they are not well cut, you can kill nobody. A building poorly built can kill people. It’s a much more difficult work. I would not compare myself with that.

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.

There is no way I would ask others to go on a Virgin Galactic flight if I didn’t feel it was safe enough for myself.

I would like to be remembered as a guy who had a set of priorities, and was willing to live by those priorities. In terms of accomplishments, my biggest accomplishment is that I kept the country safe amidst a real danger.

Mission presidents hold keys of responsibility for the welfare, safety, and success of their missionaries.

My favourite car I drove in the ‚shoot out‘ at Silverstone was the 2016 Mercedes DTM car. I loved every moment in it, the downforce being particularly surprising.

In crises the most daring course is often safest.

It’s going to be a season with lots of accidents, and I’ll risk saying that we’ll be lucky if something really serious doesn’t happen.

In a country with millions of people and cars going everywhere, the enemy is going to get a car bomb out there once in awhile.

The one permanent emotion of the inferior man is fear – fear of the unknown, the complex, the inexplicable. What he wants above everything else is safety.

We fear that this moment will end, that we won’t get what we need, that we will lose what we love, or that we will not be safe.

What if others suffer shipwreck, yet none that sail with Jesus have ever been stranded yet.

We could definitely make a flying car – but that’s not the hard part. The hard part is, how do you make a flying car that’s super safe and quiet? Because if it’s a howler, you’re going to make people very unhappy.

The middle of the road is where the white line is – and that’s the worst place to drive.

Because I believe in God and have faith in God, it doesn’t mean I am immortal. It doesn’t mean I am immune, as has been claimed. I am as scared as anyone of getting hurt, especially driving a Formula One car.
