Chuck Palahniuk
There's a terrible dark joy when the only person who knows all your secrets is finally dead.
Chuck Palahniuk
As the child outlives the father,so must the character bury the author.
Chuck Palahniuk
To some of us, the nights are too long. To some, the days.
Chuck Palahniuk
These days, most of the people you hear laughing are dead.
Chuck Palahniuk
Most guys will fight to know you. Some guys will deny you're a real person, and some will just ignore you. The zealot. The atheist. The agnostic.
Chuck Palahniuk

Chuck Palahniuk
Dude, the place is filling up, I say. It feels like we're living in the bottom half of an hourglass. Like somehow we're running out of time.
