My first Indy 500 was one of my high points. I ended up qualifying fourth and I finished fourth. I had a win in Japan a few years later, and then qualifying for Daytona was great as well.
Danica Patrick
Being a girl, my parents could have discouraged me from racing ... but my family has such a passion and so much confidence in me, and that goes a long way.
Danica Patrick
I think that Indy is special to me. The greater the distance between the last time I drove an Indy car and the next time, I wouldn't like that to be too big.

My goal is people associate November with COPD awareness month as much as they notice October with breast cancer and pink. That'd be a great thing if it happened. The fact that COPD kills more people than breast cancer and diabetes put together should raise some red flags.

I think you can be happy and still be competitive. A good lesson for everybody is to think a bit before you speak and represent who you really are instead of the brash emotional you.

It would be hypocritical of me to use being female in some ways, and diss being female in other ways. It's part of the programme.

My sister and I would race on the weekends. It was a way for my sister, my mom and me to spend time with my dad. He worked all week and worked a lot so it was a great way for us to spend time as a family and have fun.

I've never seen myself as a 'girl driver.' I'm just a driver.
Danica Patrick
I think you have to feel comfortable with your car. You have to go into Turn 1, every lap, with confidence. You have to be sure of yourself and your equipment.
Danica Patrick
Winning is the obvious goal, but it's not easy. There are so many good drivers and every week is different. I want to win badly, but I understand that it's going to take hard work. In the meantime I'll continue to set obtainable goals and do my best both on and off the racetrack.
Danica Patrick
No matter how good you are, how brave you are or anything, it comes down to that car so many times. Not every time, but so many times.
Danica Patrick
Since I started in Nascar, popularity has definitely gone up. I've become more attractive and helpful to companies that are looking for spokespersons. So from that perspective, things are going really well.
Danica Patrick
The mistake I really learned from was in 2005, leading the Indianapolis 500. I had a decision whether or not to save enough fuel to finish the race - which meant slowing down - or going all-out for the win. I went conservative and saved enough fuel to go to the end but finished fourth.
Danica Patrick
I'm a good blend of both my mom and dad.
Danica Patrick
I want to win at everything. I usually don't like things that I'm not good at, but it doesn't mean I don't want to win at them.
Danica Patrick
I think the more yellows, the more lights, the better. It alerts everybody. I mean, I guess I'm always a little bit afraid when the yellow comes out, we all get out of it, that someone won't notice it, pile into the back of you.
Danica Patrick
In this society these days, women are widely accepted in all kinds of cross-gender areas. So yeah, it's time!
Danica Patrick
You have to keep thinking, I can be better.
Danica Patrick
If there's one great thing I think that's happened over the years, it's that women are being accepted into a man's world in all different areas, whether it's flying an airplane or driving a race car.

No one wants to hear my perspective on politics, but I think honestly as you get older, you get more interested in it.
