More quotes by Bret Easton Ellis

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

Bret Easton Ellis
I do not feel I have a legacy to protect.
Bret Easton Ellis

Bret Easton Ellis
Disintegration---I'm taking it in stride.
Bret Easton Ellis
The images I had were of people being driven mad by living in the city. Images of parents who were so hungry and unfulfilled that they ate their own children.
Bret Easton Ellis
I have no problems or issues with screenwriting in general.
Bret Easton Ellis
My pain is constant and sharp...this confession has meant nothing
Bret Easton Ellis
I kept staring into the blackness of the woods, drawn into the darkness as I always had been. I suddenly realized how alone I was. (But this is how you travel, the wind whispered back, this is how you've always lived.)
Bret Easton Ellis
I feel like I'm not smart enough to answer the questions I'm asked.
Bret Easton Ellis
I've been accused of being very vain about my apathy.
Bret Easton Ellis
And as the elevator descents, passing the second floor, and the first floor, going even father down, I realize that the money doesn't matter. That all that does is that I want to see the worst
