Quotes by Bill Harrison (?)

“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!”
― Bill Harrison, Traveling Solo, but Never Alone: Surviving and Thriving After the Death of a Spouse
