I wasn't acting on passion. I was simply acting.
Bret Easton Ellis

I don't want to care. If I care about things, it'll just be worse, it'll just be another thing to worry about. It's less painful if I don't care.

At Columbus Circle, a juggler wearing a trench cloak and top hat, who is usually at this location afternoons and who calls himself Stretch Man, performs in front of a small, uninterested crowd though I smell prey, and he seems worthy of my wrath, I move on in search of a less dorky target.

No one will ever know anyone. We just have to deal with each other. You're not ever gonna know me.

I had no idea that 'Less Than Zero' was going to be read by anyone outside of Los Angeles, and it's - believe me, as the writer of the book I'm somewhat amused and intrigued by the idea that 25 years later it's still out and people are still reading it.

My pain is constant and sharp...this confession has meant nothing

I'm into, oh murders and executions mostly. It depends.

Unless you're the director on the movie, or putting up the money for the movie, you really don't have a lot of control.

Hope E.L .James doesn't think I'm being a prankster. I really want to adapt her novels for the screen. Christian Grey is a writer's dream.

I went to college in Vermont, and then stayed in the East Coast.
