Mayors could never get away with the kind of nonsense that goes on in Washington. In our world you either picked up the trash or you didn't. You either moved an abandoned car or you didn't. You either filled a pothole or you didn't. That's what we do every day. And we know how to get this stuff done.

You know sitting in the car when they got back in and - first of all it was relief. I was not - there were two get away cars or switch cars they were called. And you know the group tended to include everyone.

Every summer my husband and I pack our suitcases load our kids into the car and drive from tense crowded New York City to my family's cottage in Maine. It's on an island with stretches of sea and sandy beaches rocky coasts and pine trees. We barbecue swim lie around and try to do nothing.

I definitely love that all these car brands are coming out with hybrid forms of every car that they have. It's very awesome because I think it does make a difference and it doesn't hurt that you save a lot of money on gas.

The United Nations four or five years ago put out a study that said the meat industry meat-eating growing meat for food is the No. 1 killer of our planet - not No. 2 or No. 3: No 1. You know what's No. 2? Transportation. Everyone thinks that No. 1 is transportation and goes out and buys a hybrid car. Screw the hybrid cars. Don't eat hamburgers.

It's not a case of 'look at me in my car' it's more 'look at the car'. I like the idea of other people enjoying them because everything has become a bit faceless and nobody likes the motor car any more.

In 1950 when the Giants signed me they gave me $15 000. I bought a 1950 Mercury. I couldn't drive but I had it in the parking lot there and everybody that could drive would drive the car. So it was like a community thing.

One thing that worried me was how writers get categorized and so they end up having to write the same kind of book again and again. That is fine if it is what you want to do but I would rather be locked in the trunk of my car with a weasel than write the same book every three years until I die.

I once went to one of those parties where everyone throws their car keys into the middle of the room. I don't know who got my moped but I drove that Peugeot for years.

Every song has a composer every book has an author every car has a maker every painting has a painter and every building has a builder. So it isn't irrational to take this simple logic a little further and say that nature must have had a Maker. It would be irrational to believe that it made itself.

My work is more about trying to ask good questions and not trying to come up with big shows. Every fashion company is doing that every car company is doing that.

I'm a big potato chip girl. I don't like chocolate and cakes and all that but I have to have my potato chips. I've got bags in the back of my car right now! But I never beat myself up about it because look: You can't give up every damn thing. You need something in your life that you like just because you like it!

We should tell our kids to just have fun participate and not get bent on winning or losing. But every coach when they say that they say it tongue in cheek 'Don't worry about winning': If you win I'll get you ice cream but if you lose I'm going to pout in the car.

Everybody has a gun in their car in Detroit.

I was an economics major in college and every summer after school I would drive my car from California from Claremont men's college at the time to New York. And I worked on Wall Street.

Life's too short when you find yourself sitting in a car for four hours every day trying to get from East L.A. to West L.A. to Hollywood and then back to East L.A.

There is no secret once we go to qualifying we all seem to enjoy it. Qualifying is all about putting everything that you have and that the car has in one lap. It's like a rush I really enjoy that.

I've tried everything other than jumping out of a plane but nothing gives you an adrenaline rush like racing a car.

Sometimes I feel like I'm not only the engine but the caboose. I have to be in the front car and pull forward and at the same time run around behind and push everybody along with me.

You're pulling 4-5G for a lot of the corners around the lap. We build up lactic acid because there are a lot of vibrations in the car and you have to have strong legs to hit the brake pedal. We need to be fit to do every lap at 100%.

A lot of people think Formula One isn't a sport because everyone drives a car when they go to work in the morning. But we're pulling up to six G on a corner or during breaking which is almost like being a fighter pilot. So we have to do a lot of work on our neck muscles.

When you're in a car which can win every race or fight for a win every race that is pressure.

I used to look like a deer in headlights on the red carpet. You step out of the car and it's bedlam. Everyone's got crazy eyes.
