A bunch of people use it, some even claim it as their own. What is the full, original quote and who said it? "Life is not a journey to the grave......... ......man what a ride" Just the facts boys and girls.
Words to live by: Life should not be 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...
That's funny. Case in point- Keith Richards. That dude looks like the wrinkled side wall of a blown out racing slick.
bill mckenna dude... "Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in one pretty and well preserved piece, but to skid across the line broadside, thoroughly used up, worn out, leaking oil, shouting GERONIMO!"
Top Gear guys used a simillar line about sliding a Konisseg (SIC?) through the Pearly Gates backward in a fireball saying "Yes I have arrived" while doing it. Obviously inspired by McKennas original. Stevie,guess you are shooting for next weekend pick up on the Model A?
First time I saw it, it was on a We Did It For Love T-shirt. My daughter thought so highly of the statement, she used it as the quote below her photo in her senior yearbook.
Bills statement predates the internet as we know it. Back when Computers took up more space than an average ranch house and punch cards/tapes were state of the art.
