More quotes by Danica Patrick
I've never been bashful to say that I'm not really interested in Formula One. When I lived in England, it's all I wanted to do and I thought that anything else would somehow be a compromise to my dreams. But then when I came back to the States, I realised how much I loved being back in the States...

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
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.

In motorsports we work in the grey areas a lot. You're trying to find where the holes are in the rule book.
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.

I'd love to do well on a big weekend with people watching and cheering, of course. But it's not fair to create an expectation level before I know what is realistic. I want to finish as well as possible. Is that top 20? Top 15? Top 25? You just have to play it by ear.

I'm a good blend of both my mom and dad.

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
Take those chances and you can achieve greatness, whereas if you go conservative, you'll never know.
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
Give yourself permission to shoot for something that seems totally beyond your grasp. You may be surprised at your capabilities
Danica Patrick
I'm not tall enough to be a model, but I wish I was 6-foot, because I love it. It's kind of artsy, and I'm artsy. And I love clothes.
Danica Patrick
I've never seen myself as a 'girl driver.' I'm just a driver.
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
It looks like I have a thing for dangerous sports, don't I?
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
In this society these days, women are widely accepted in all kinds of cross-gender areas. So yeah, it's time!

Together, we can put the brakes on breast cancer.
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.

Maybe back in the day you didn't need to be the greatest looking to be on TV and you didn't need to speak the best, but in this day and age, I think you need to be the package. You need to look the part for your sponsors, you need to be able to speak the part for the media and to big CEOs.
