Interview, January 1994 http://bleacherreport.com/articles/20702-ayrton-senna-fourteen-years-later
“
If I ever happen to have an accident that eventually costs me my life, I hope it is in one go. I would not like to be in a wheelchair. I would not like to be in a hospital suffering from whatever injury it was. If I’m going to live, I want to live fully, very intensely, because I am an intense person. It would ruin my life if I had to live partially.
— Ayrton Senna
