I'd like to see us improving on what we had last year.

It is expensive to start from scratch though.

The team is very enthusiastic - everyone is trying hard to do their best, and everyone is putting a lot of effort in to moving forward and getting the right results and it's a very good, close-knit team.

We've had to set a workshop up; we've had to equip the workshop and everything else. But all that equipment is there now and whatever projects they want to use it for in the future.

From where started, I think it is too far down to try and win a championship at the end of the season, although we had a very good first race at Mondello and scored some good points.

Some other people are very lucky and always get in to the very best teams at the very best times and therefore go out and score lots of championship points and be in with a chance of the championship.

The one I was driving for at the time, Nissan, they pulled out after they won the championship, because it was costing millions of pounds to do a national championship and ok, that might be ok when you're doing an international championship, but not for a national one.

The team's aims are do to the best we can basically.

I would like to become champion, but I'm realistic about it.

It's a good team though that works very closely and very well together, and all those people putting that effort in, then I'm sure we will improve dramatically from where we are now as the season goes on.

Unfortunately we don't have all the bits and pieces on the car that we had hoped to have by this stage so we've got to make as good a job as we can with what we have and we feel we are doing well with that at the moment.

I don't think it's so much of a disadvantage setting up from scratch.

It will be hard work. It's always hard work, and hard work from everybody within the team - technical director, mechanics, drivers, engineers - everyone in the team.

I don't think I'd change the path that's got me where I am today.

The Pirate is surrealism and so, in a curious way, is Father of the Bride.

Optimism is joyful searching; pessimism is a prison of fear and a clutching at illusionary safety.

Outside of advertising, the person who's influenced me most is quite possibly Frank Gehry.

Someone who will take responsibility for the real welfare of the American people, to be honest with them. I'd like to have that adult in the room.

Honestly celibacy isnt hard. Its the gasers that sell you broken promises and try to get you off of Gods plan offering nothing.

The people whose necks hurt when I write about the Middle East tend to live in Brooklyn or Boca Raton: the kind of Zionist who pays another man to live in Israel for him. I have nothing but contempt for such people.

Painting was a problem - you produce a thing, and then you sell it and get money, and that was quickly considered totally uncool.

Your limits are somewhere up there, waiting for you to reach beyond infinity.

I'm a very romantic person.

My father never felt the need to wrap himself in anybody's mantle. He never felt the need to pretend to be anybody else. This is their administration. This is their war. If they can't stand on their own two feet, well, they're no Ronald Reagans, that's for sure.

There is something dark and wintry about the atmosphere of the later Middle Ages.

In not having an appointment at Harvard, I'm in the company of a great many people whose work I admire tremendously, in particular women of color.

Marriage is like putting your hand into a bag of snakes in the hope of pulling out an eel.

Every time I dance, I'm trying to prove myself to myself.

Every performer can get better. It's not about staying with what God gave you and doing nothing with it for the rest of your life.

What is human warfare but just this; an effort to make the laws of God and nature take sides with one party.

I am a candid interview and I have a dark and dry sense of humor - a very Canadian sense of humor and I am only learning now stupidly that you can't read tongue. When I say something funny in a newspaper and I meant it to be funny, it doesn't read that way.

We should not be afraid to speak the truth to our powerful friend the United States.

Stop threatening to kill people on Twitter because you don't like what they are saying!

Ask anyone who has been in a love relationship for a while: nothing is perfect.

The intuition of free will gives us the truth.

Maria is the best reason to come home.

I have no animus toward digital, though I still pretty much take everything on a silver-based negative, either a wet plate or just regular silver 8x10. But I've started messing a little bit with scanning the negative and then reworking it just slightly.
