"A reporter once asked the great racing driver Tazio Nuvolari if he thought he might be killed in a racing car (this was in the '30s when Formula One was run on public roads). Nuvolari said yes, he did. The reporter then asked him how he found the courage to drive. Novalari asked the reporter if he expected to die in bed. The reporter said he did. Then Nuvolari asked, 'Then how do you find the courage to lie down at night?'"
