What I did, you know, being away from my family, letting so many people down. I let myself down, not being out on the football field, being in a prison bed, in a prison bunk, writing letters home, you know. That wasn't my life. Michael Vick
The first day I walked into prison, and he slammed that door, I knew the magnitude of the decision that I made, and the poor judgment, and what I allowed to happen to the animals.

A lot of people got out of it after my situation, not because I went to prison but because it was sad for them to see me go through something that was so pointless, that could have been avoided. Michael Vick
During my time in prison, I told myself that I wanted to be a part of the solution and not the problem. Michael Vick

My father taught me that the easiest thing to do was to quit. He'd say, 'It doesn't take any talent to do that.' Ken Venturi
I don't believe you have to be better than everybody else. I believe you have to be better than you ever thought you could be. Ken Venturi
I tell all the rookies that come into our series and all the young drivers they can come ask me anything at any time, and we'll give them the straight shoot. Al Unser
I wouldn't mind meeting Eddie Van Halen. That would be great. We need to invite him to a race. Al Unser
