Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Ferris
Oh, I’m sorry I can’t come to the door right now. I feel that in my weakened condition I could take a nasty spill down the stairs and subject myself to further school absences.
Ferris
Only the meek get pinched. The bold survive.
Ferris
This is my ninth day missed. Cameron, I'm not doing this for me, I'm doing this for you.
Ferris

Ferris
