An two men ride of a horse, one must ride behind.
Life is a horse: either you ride it or it rides you.
My life has been a roller coaster ride, but somehow I've always been able to land on my feet and still play the guitar.
A third myth is that men think that women like guys who are dangerous. As a result, guys will often smoke cigarettes, drink too much, and ride a motorcycle without a helmet. The reality? Women don't like guys who are dangerous. Women want us to think that because women are trying to kill us.
When I think about the fact that I get to work with stars like Will Ferrell or Kurt Russell my eyes fill with tears of joy and appreciation. I hope the ride keeps going.
God put us here, on this carnival ride. We close our eyes never knowing where it'll take us next.
I was already headed for Hell, I might as well enjoy the ride.
I might never ride Corr again. I don't know who I am without him.
It's not getting from A to B. It's not the beginning or the destination that counts. It's the ride in between. . . This train is alive with things that should be seen and heard. It's a living, breathing something -- you just have to want to learn its rhythm.
The motorcycle was the thing I really didn't want to do. . . 'You're going to be raped, be naked. . . ' but as soon as he was like, 'You're going to have to ride a motorcycle,' I was like, 'Oh, really?'
But it does no good--solves nothing--to distance myself from the front lines of human need by using the mail as a safe shelter. I believe that serving the best ends of humanity means getting out in the middle of it just as it is, not staying home writing checks and thinking hopeful thoughts. The world does not need tourists who ride by in a bus clucking their tongues. The world as it is needs those who will love it enough to change it, with what they have, where they are. And you're damned right that's idealistic. No apology. When idealism goes into the trash as junk mail, we're finished.
Don't buy upgrades, ride up grades.
Everybody - even huge movie stars - have downs. That's just how it is. The work ebbs and flows. My manager and I were saying, 'Let's remember that in 2013 we were soooo busy. ' So whenever it is that we're not, maybe it'll come back again. Maybe it won't. But you've gotta love the ride.
When you're in the center of something, on a ride, I don't think you realize what it is until it's over.
There's a lot of great people out here, I just appreciate it and hope everybody has had fun because I've enjoyed my ride.
In my mind, only one inviolable precept exists in terms of being a successful writer: you have to write. The unspoken sub-laws of that one precept are: to write, you must start writing and then finish writing. And then, most likely, start writing all over again because this writing "thing" is one long and endless ride on a really weird (but pretty awesome) carousel. Cue the calliope music.
I'm a very lucky man. I get to do the thing I want most in life, write songs and sing them for people, and ride bikes. I love my family. I love my home. I get to work with people I've admired my whole life. It's a pretty good life.
Keep walking. Hot night right now, right here. All you have is what you are. All you want is much too much. All you get is so much less. All you feel is nothing. All you see is darkness. All you know is senseless and all you can do about it is ride.
On Rumor's tongue continual slanders ride.
Your false self is always that which is passing away. Your true self doesn't go up or down, it's constant - it's a rock. Once you learn how to live there, what others say about you, your failures or successes - these don't send you on a roller coaster ride down or up. It's really the only way to peace. There's no other way to be peaceful except in the true self.
