More quotes by Bret Easton Ellis
Women aren't very bright, Rip says. Studies have been done.
Bret Easton Ellis
But this road doesn't go anywhere,” I told him. “That doesn't matter.” “What does?” I asked, after a little while. “Just that we're on it, dude,” he said.
Bret Easton Ellis
I've forgotten who I had lunch with earlier, and even more important, where.
Bret Easton Ellis
If you start looking at movies on a moral level - I don't like that, that hurts, that's mean, that's bad - then I don't even want to talk to you. Or like, someone that says I don't like science-fiction movies, or I don't want to sit through a Western, or I don't like violence in movies, then I completely tune out.
Bret Easton Ellis
Not being able to find meaning can be just as powerful as finding meaning.
Bret Easton Ellis
It's the rare book that's able to transport you in a way that a movie does.
Bret Easton Ellis

Open the hood of a car and it will tell you something about the people who designed it, is just one of many phrases I’m tortured by.
Bret Easton Ellis
I laugh maniacally, then take a deep breath and touch my chest- expecting a heart to be thumping quickly, impatiently, but there's nothing there, not even a beat.
Bret Easton Ellis
Everyone I know who is successful has issues with their father, regardless of whether it was sports or business or entertainment.
Bret Easton Ellis

Bret Easton Ellis
Do you wear a diaphragm everywhere you go?' I want to scream, but stop myself because the idea really excites me.
Bret Easton Ellis
Disappear Here. The syringe fills with blood. You're a beautiful boy and that's all that matters. Wonder if he's for sale. People are afraid to merge. To merge.
Bret Easton Ellis
Fear never shows up and the party ends early.
Bret Easton Ellis
Completely committed to adapting 'Fifty Shades of Grey'. This is not a joke. Christian Grey and Ana: potentially great cinematic characters.
Bret Easton Ellis
I'm not a big believer in disciplined writers. What does discipline mean? The writer who forces himself to sit down and write for seven hours every day might be wasting those seven hours if he's not in the mood and doesn't feel the juice. I don't think discipline equals creativity.
Bret Easton Ellis
Is evil something you are? Or is it something you do?
Bret Easton Ellis
I think basically most men are misogynistic.
Bret Easton Ellis
And as things fell apart, nobody paid much attention
