There are races and then there are races. And without a doubt, the Indy 500 is the race that I've always wanted to attend. And now, to be driving the Corvette Pace Car... this is going to be unbelievable.
Guy Fieri
Autobiography is now as common as adultery and hardly less reprehensible.
John Grigg

Richard E. Griggs
The cradle of the future is the grave of the past.
Franz Grillparzer

Alton Brown
Looking down the road, space exploration and the benefits it yields - in medicine and information technology - should not be overlooked.
Bob Barr
If future generations are to remember us more with gratitude than sorrow, we must achieve more than just the miracles of technology. We must also leave them a glimpse of the world as it was created, not just as it looked when we got through with it.
Lyndon B. Johnson

Billy Campbell
Criticism is a study by which men grow important and formidable at very small expense. He whom nature has made weak, and idleness keeps ignorant, may yet support his vanity by the name of a critic.
