Quote from Ross in The One with the Ride-Along
Ross: The most amazing thing happened tonight. I thought my number was up. I had an actual near-death experience. Rachel: What? What happened? Ross: Okay, oaky. We were on the ride-along with Gary, right, and somebody took a shot at me! Rachel: Whoa. Really? Ross: No. A car backfired. But I thought somebody was taking a shot at me. And, Rach I survived. And I was filled with this great respect for life. I want to experience every moment. I want to seize every opportunity. I am seeing everything so clearly now. Rachel: Because a car backfired? Ross: Okay, why are you here?
