Safety matters, but having lived matters even more.

As Hunter S Thomas said: “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!””

Life should be whatever you want it to be. You want to chill the fuck out? You do you. Life, however, should not be full of regrets. Which largely stem from not allowong yourself to do what you want, whether it be from fear, pressure by other people, or certain expecations.

Quotes tend to be nice motivational forces but end up being very simplistic in a world that could not be more complex.

You both make excellent points. Upvotes for all.

Yeah but what right do you have to push that onto someone who can't consent? Sure, let's let my baby smoke weed and sit on my shoulders while I ride roller coasters, cause if he dies at least he had fun!

Quote would mean more if he didn't kill himself.

At least jump out of a plane with no parachute, Hunter.
