人在世上漂，哪能不挨刀。骑车的人就没有不摔车的，看看车手是怎么看待摔车这件事情的吧。

下一次你开着40英里（64码）时速的汽车，想象一下跳车的感觉。感觉就像衣不蔽体，这就是我们摔车时候的场景。——大卫·米勒

Next time you are in a car travelling at 40mph think about jumping out – naked.  That's what it's like when we crash. ——David Millar

▲迈克尔·巴里所写的书

每一次的摔车都使得我们慢慢失去了孩童时的无畏。我日渐成熟，却愈发谨慎；这延长了我的职业生涯，却让我失去了胜利的机会。——迈克尔·巴里（曾经的加拿大职业车手，现在的作家）

With each crash we slowly lose the fearlessness of a child.  Caution, which blossoms with maturity, has lengthened my career but may have cost me victories. ——Michael Barry

我感到非常惊讶，参加环法自行车比赛的人如此之多，而他们却毫无防护。一旦他们发生摔车，很可能会骨折，他们的比赛就结束了。他们用几年的时间苦练、控制饮食，一次摔车就能让所有的努力化为乌有。我很惊讶这是那么脆弱。——Joël Santoni（《La Course en tête》有关莫克斯纪录片由他导演）

I was so amazed by the number of people falling in the biggest races and how naked they are.  When they fell in the road bones were broken, and the race for them was finished.  They would spend the year suffering, dieting and then all was lost.  I was amazed by how fragile it was. ——Joël Santoni
