Bret Easton Ellis

Bret Easton Ellis
You learn to move on without the people you love.
Bret Easton Ellis

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.
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
He was simply someone who floated through our lives and didn't seem to care how flatly he perceived everyone or that he'd shared our secret failures with the world, showcasing the youthful indifference, the gleaming nihilism, glamorizing the horror of it all.
Bret Easton Ellis
And as things fell apart, nobody paid much attention
Bret Easton Ellis
There’s no use in denying it: this has been a bad week. I’ve started drinking my own urine.
Bret Easton Ellis
I do not feel I have a legacy to protect.
Bret Easton Ellis
And, Price adds, smiling, if another round of Bellinis comes within a twenty-foot radius of our table we are going to set the maitre d' on fire. So you know, warn him.
Bret Easton Ellis
No one is drawn to writing about being happy or feelings of joy.
Bret Easton Ellis
