Wealthy men can't live in an island that is encircled by poverty. We all breathe the same air. We must give a chance to everyone, at least a basic chance.

More quotes by Ayrton Senna
If you think I'm fast, just wait until you see my nephew Bruno.
Ayrton Senna
And suddenly I realised that I was no longer driving the car consciously. I was driving it by a kind of instinct, only I was in a different dimension.
Ayrton Senna
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.
Ayrton Senna
You either commit yourself as a professional racing driver that's designed to win races or you come second or you come third or fifth and am not design to come third, fourth or fifth, I race to win.
Ayrton Senna
Money is a strange business. People who haven't got it aim it strongly. People who have are full of troubles.
Ayrton Senna
Fear is exciting for me.
Ayrton Senna
I want to live fully, very intensely. I would never want to live partially, suffering from illness or injury. If I ever happen to have an accident that eventually costs my life, I hope it happens in one instant.
Ayrton Senna
I believe if you are doing something like competing, like motor racing, you either do well or forget it.
Ayrton Senna
Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than others.
Ayrton Senna
I believe that we start to see our true personalities when we go through the most difficult moments. This is when we get stronger
Ayrton Senna
You must take the compromise to win, or else nothing. That means: you race or you do not.
Ayrton Senna
If you no longer go for a gap that exists, you are no longer a racing driver.
Ayrton Senna
Pure driving, pure racing, that´s what makes me happy.
Ayrton Senna
I continuously go further and further learning about my own limitations, my body limitation, psychological limitations. It's a way of life for me.
Ayrton Senna
The past is just data. I only see the future.
Ayrton Senna
In many ways we are a dream for people, not a reality. That counts in your mind. It shows how much you can touch people, and as much as you can try to give those people somehow it is nothing compared to what they live in their own mind, in their dreams, for you.
Ayrton Senna
We are made of emotions, we are all looking for emotions, it's only a question of finding the way to experience them.
Ayrton Senna
Sometimes I try to beat other people's achievements but on many occasions I find it's better to beat my own achievements. That can give me more satisfaction. I don't feel happy if I am comfortable. Something inside me pushes me when I get comfortable. It makes me go farther and I want to keep pushing.
Ayrton Senna
The harder I push, the more I find within myself. I am always looking for the next step, a different world to go into, areas where I have not been before. It's lonely driving a Grand Prix car, but very absorbing. I have experienced new sensations, and I want more. That is my excitement, my motivation.
Ayrton Senna
I cannot live on an island of prosperity when I'm surrounded by a sea of misery.
Ayrton Senna
