The Art of Racing in the Rain

by Garth Stein

To live every day as if it had been stolen from death, that is how I would like to live. To feel the joy of life, as Eve felt the joy of life. To separate oneself from the burden, the angst, the anguish that we all encounter every day. To say I am alive, I am wonderful, I am. I am. That is something to aspire to. When I am a person, that is how I will live my life.

Your car goes where your eyes go.

“There is no dishonor in losing the race,” Don said. “There is only dishonor in not racing because you are afraid to lose.”
