“A coaster gives you hope. You can pretty much ride a good one through the worst tragedy life throws at you. You can even ride it through somebody dying, I guess.”

“Life is a roller coaster, you can scream whenever their is a bump or you can just put your hands up and enjoy the ride”

“If you can give a nation hope you can ride them too.”

“Sometimes you have to grab life by the horns and ride it,even if it tries to throw you.”

“You need to grab life.. You only get one turn. One ride. One trip through the universe”

“Life is truly a ride. We're all strapped in and no one can stop it. When the doctor slaps your behind, he's ripping your ticket and away you go. As you make each passage from youth to adulthood to maturity, sometimes you put your arms up and scream, sometimes you just hang on to that bar in front of you. But the ride is the thing. I think the most you can hope for at the end of life is that your hair's messed, you're out of breath, and you didn't throw up.”
