"Az év minden napján Indianapolisra gondolok, a nap minden órájában,
és mikor alszom akkor is. Minden, amit valaha akartam az életemben,
azt az Indianapolis Motor Speedway falain belül találtam meg.
Május elsejétől az utolsó napig szeretem az egészet.
Ha a verseny reggelén elmondod nekem, hogy a házam leégett, azt mondanám,
és akkor mi van?
Az a pillanat, amikor a verseny elindul, életem
legnagyobb pillanata mindig, és az a nap, amikor megnyerem a versenyt,
olyan lesz mintha az életem véget ért volna. Nincs semmi több,
amit az életben akartam."
- Eddie Sachs
