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.

More quotes by 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
I'm a good blend of both my mom and dad.
Danica Patrick
I'm a big believer in everybody being themselves. If not doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself, that's great. But if doing a swimsuit calendar is yourself, then you should be able to do it. What I do outside the car adds to who I am and expresses a different side of me.
Danica Patrick
You know, it's always good to have seen a track before, just to kind of know where the little bumps are here and there, and just the general feel for the size.
Danica Patrick
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
I've read stories that are set in a celebrity's house, and you know where it is and what it looks like and what's inside it, and that's not something I want anyone to know.
Danica Patrick
I've been taught from a young age to want to be the best driver... It was about being the best driver and not the best girl.
Danica Patrick
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.
Danica Patrick
I would tell kids not be like me, but to try and be better than me. Because I always wanted to be better than everyone I was around. That's what drove me. I wanted to be better than my role models. I'm super competitive.
Danica Patrick
So many people have that story as to how they could have maybe won the Indy 500, which is for me the ultimate goal. I would imagine for a lot of people it's the ultimate goal. It's definitely high up on the list.
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.
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
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
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.
Danica Patrick
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.
Danica Patrick
Take those chances and you can achieve greatness, whereas if you go conservative, you'll never know.
Danica Patrick
Together, we can put the brakes on breast cancer.
Danica Patrick
Indy, I have lots of great memories from there, and probably the part of me that doesn't feel quite as longing for it is that there is still a chance that I could do it again. It's not gone.
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
We don't do things we aren't good at by nature. I wouldn't play basketball because I'm only 5' 1. Find what you enjoy - whether it's racing, flying a helicopter, being a doctor, or stitching clothes together. Once you've done that, you have the passion you need.
