A Quote by Ayn Rand

Ferris: Are you going to be as impractical as that? Rearden: The evaluation of an action as practical, Dr. Ferris, depends on what it is that one wishes to practice. Ferris: Haven't you always placed your self-interest above all else? Rearden: That is what I am doing right now.

Is this politics? I suppose I am going to have to learn all about it, if I am to run Lord Ferris's household, and throw parties and all. Now...explain to me again just who hates who, and why?

Ellen Kushner

I was a terrible actor. But John Hughes liked me, and he encouraged me. I made him laugh, I guess is the bottom line, and then he gave me that part in Ferris Bueller's Day Off as the flower man. It's just a nothing part in one sense, but it's such an iconic movie that people will ask me from time to time, "Are you in Ferris Bueller's Day Off?" "Yeah."

Louie Anderson

The fun of the game is right now. A lot of people don't really realize that. They think you have to get to the top to start having fun, and it's not. It's the journey getting to the top where everything is always great. I'm on the 'Ferris Bueller' thing where I look around every once in a while so I don't miss it.

Christian Kane

A Dauntless Ferris wheel wouldn’t have cars. You would just hang on tight with your hands, and good luck to you.

Veronica Roth

Certainty a strange Ferris wheel of a statement!

John Allen Paulos

I once knew a man who stole a Ferris Wheel.

Dashiell Hammett

My family originally lived in Brooklyn. Our first apartment was a little place above my father and uncle's hardware store in Coney Island. Now, don't get the impression that we were surrounded by merry-go-rounds, roller coasters and Ferris wheels. Nope, this was a little side street.

Gilbert Gottfried

I see nothing in space as promising as the view from a Ferris wheel.

E. B. White

I felt like I was Ferris Bueller. I wanted to be those kids in 'The Breakfast Club.'

Rick Famuyiwa

You know, hip hop is a big ferris wheel that goes around and you've just gotta be able to maintain yourself while it's going around.

Jadakiss

One thing I got to do that was awesome was hang off the side of this Ferris wheel and do that stunt myself.

Alexandra Daddario

You never know how great a kiss can feel, when you're stopped at the top of a Ferris wheel.

Freddy Cannon

I'm a big fan of both Linda Bassett and Pam Ferris, but had to pretend I was calm about it.

Charlotte Ritchie

Jim Harrison is someone I always enjoy, one of the great contemporary writers. I like Tim Ferris' Big Boom Theory. I'm getting into a different kind of reading, not straight novels.

Hunter S. Thompson

We're all carnies, though some people are in denial. They want to be above it all, above the mayhem of laughter and people and lights and animals and the dark sadness that lurks in the coners and beneath the rides and in the trailers after hours. So they ride teh Ferris wheel, and at the top, they think they've left it all behind They've ascended to a place where they can take things seriously. Where they can be taken seriously.

N.D. Wilson

As a child I wanted to be a kind of hybrid of Ferris Beuller, Ace Ventura, Bette Midler, and Lucille Ball.
