The entire quote is; "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 in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!" - H.S. Thompson (also attributed to several other authors)

In other words, live life to it's fullest, take chances and have fun doing it as long as it hurts no one else.
