If a person has no more dreams, no longer has any reason to live.
Dreaming is necessary, even if in the dream goes glimpsed reality. For me it is one of the principles of life.

Rich people cannot live on an island surrounded by an ocean of poverty.
We all breathe the same air. You have to give everyone a chance.

You'll never know how it feels when a driver wins. That helmet hides incomprehensible feelings.

I'm a privileged, I have always had a very good life. But all I got from the life I gained
with the commitment and the strong desire to achieve my goals, to win in life, not as a pilot.
So let me tell you that whoever you are in life, whether you are at the lowest level, or higher, you have to have a great
strength and great determination and have to face anything with great love and faith in God and one day will reach the
your goals and you will succeed.
Ayrton Senna da Silva
The most important thing is to be yourself, not to let anyone hinder you, without being
different because someone wants you to be different. You have to be yourself. Many times you make mistakes because of your personality,
character or interference that you can find along the way. But you can just learn from your mistakes. And this is the main thing:
use your errors to learn. I believe in the ability to deeply concentrate on it in order to make progress and even more.

You can never change the world alone. But you can do your part to change a bit of it.
What I really do for poverty I'll never say to anyone. F1 is a miserable thing compared to this tragedy.

You think you have a limit, so you try to touch this limit. Something happens and you can immediately run a bit
faster. Thanks to the power of your mind, your determination, your instinct, and the experience you can fly very high.

Running, competing, it's in my blood, it's a part of me, it's a part of my life; I always use to do this and it comes before all the rest.

Whoever you are in life, whether you are at the lowest level, or higher, you must have great strength and

I have no idols. I admire hard work, dedication and competence.

Ayrton and Angelo
It's not a news speak about Ayrton as a person very reserved, especially when the topics of the conversation are about his affections and his friendships.
In a time when it's not rare to see the Formula One drivers surrounded by girls and friends in the paddock, Ayrton is often alone
Many have judged this way of being; many people also scatter the rumor that he is homosexual.
Nothing can be more wrong: he was a perfectionist and a professional. He divides work by human relationships.
A person with whom he has always had a special relationship is the Italian photographer Angelo Orsi, and I think it is one of the few true friendships that Ayrton had in the "circus".
Both are there, on May 1, 1994. It is at 14:17 o'clock when the radio announces an accident at the Tamburello curve. Angelo, ready to capture every moment of the race
with his Canon, takes his scooter and moves quickly on the back lane of the circuit until he arrives in the place of the incident;
the photographer picks up his camera and shoots pictures after pictures, as if doing damn good his work is the only way to don't think.
The shots arrive to the office when the director of Autosprint, Carlo Cavicchi, gets a call from Angelo: the photographer asks that a photograph among many should be destroyed;
it's depicting the face of Ayrton without his helmet. Cavicchi respects the decision of Orsi and eliminates the photograph. Meanwhile, on the circuit, the
voice that the only photojournalist with the material about the accident is Angelo has already spread. Many offers arriving from
everywhere, money that canchange the life of a simple photographer F1.
But Angelo does not betray the Friend ... the eternal Friend.
A testimony about Ayrton issued by Angelo for Sky:
It's not a news speak about Ayrton as a person very reserved, especially when the topics of the conversation are about his affections and his friendships.
