Quote by Phil Hill

“Any professional sportsman will tell you that you can work out in the gym as much as you like, but eating is the key.

If you're going into games tired or your training tired, then there's a risk of injury.”

“So, The Color Purple changed my life. It changed everything about my life because, in that moment of praying and letting go, I really understood the principle of surrender. The principle of surrender is that, after you have done all that you can do, and you've done your best and given it your all, you then have to release it to whatever you call God, or don't call God.”
