A Great Quote...

Post by CRC Parrothead »

and a great philosophy...

"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of
arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body; but
rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally
worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow! What a Ride!'"

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body; but rather to skid in PortSide, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming,
'What a lovely cruise!'

Great quote. Seems to fit perfectly with another good quote by one particular songwriter: "I'd rather die while I'm living than live while I'm dead."
