Damon Hill
British Athlete
I had a lot of time to think, and that is not good for your mind. And when it actually happened, it was not so much a celebration but the relief. It was an exorcism anxiety. After each race there is a procedure in which you get taken off to the podium and the TV interviews.
Quote examples
David Sheff
American Author

Quote examples
Liam Neeson
