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

Bret Easton Ellis
Our lives are not all interconnected. That theory is a crock. Some people truly do not need to be here.
Bret Easton Ellis
And as things fell apart, nobody paid much attention
Bret Easton Ellis
Regardless of the business aspect of things, is there a reason that there isn't a female Hitchcock or a female Scorsese or a female Spielberg? I don't know. I think it's a medium that really is built for the male gaze and for a male sensibility.
Bret Easton Ellis
