Richard Petty

If Kyle had ever been dedicated to nothing but driving, he’d have been really, really good. But he wanted to do a lot of other things. He’s always been that way. Still is.

Kyle saw the things he didn’t accomplish but he could help Adam accomplish.

“Success in life is knowing the difference between ham and eggs; the chicken’s involved, the pig is committed.”

I quit driving, I’m not retired.

You haven’t been around here long, have you.

We drove for the sheer fun of driving because there wasn’t that much money to be made.

Of course, chicks keep popping up. When you’re in a hotel, a pretty young lady makes life bearable.

I’m waiting for them to make ‘Thundercats’. I would love to be Cheetara.

Everything I do stems from something personal, not just because it will look good on paper or be a tax write-off.

I was just taking out my trash and I had, like, 300 cans of Diet Coke. It was just like, ‘How did that happen?’ I don’t even remember buying them. I also like Cinnamon Toast Crunch. My addictions are pretty much the only things I consume.

Because if you do what you think is right for the benefit of everybody and everything and you make decisions, to go back and regret them afterwards-it’s a futile experience and it’s not worth thinking about. Because life just unfolds. Provided you do your best and you think you’re on the right track, you can only be right or wrong. But to regret it-I don’t think there are any huge errors or misdemeanors. You know, I should have hung out with Elvis a bit more.

I think that passion and love and pain are all bearable, and they go to make love beautiful.

Trump’s presidency is like one of his handshakes: it pulls you in whether you like it or not.

Finding a good bus driver can be as important as finding a good musician.

I’m a Leo with something odd rising.

I think the best analogy for where we are right now is that America is Elvis Presley – the most beautiful, talented, rebellious nation in the history of Earth. And now, you’re in your Vegas years. You’ve squeezed yourself into a white jumpsuit, you’re wheezing your way through ‘Love Me Tender’ and you might be about to pass away bloated on the toilet. But you’re still the King.

You haven’t been around here long, have you.

It is an impressively arrogant move to conclude that just because you don’t like something, it is empirically not good. I don’t like Chinese food, but I don’t write articles trying to prove it doesn’t exist.

Down the road, I’ll probably have a kid or two or three. And there will probably be political events or spiritual things to comment on, and humor.

You get the best and the worst of both worlds. I know there were a lot of times when you try to figure out where you fit in. I just realized that it worked to my advantage because I just got along with a lot of people. But to literally be two races, it’s really hard to see color because I’m the gray area. I had to learn about both sides of myself and be really proud of and educated in both.

Lipgloss is my calling!
