My inventory of people who can save me is down to just me.
Chuck Palahniuk
I'm really glad that I spent my twenties messing around and having disaster after disaster - with people who were doing likewise - because it's really my greatest treasure now.
Chuck Palahniuk
You humiliate a rich person and they're still rich. You humiliate a brilliant person and they're still smart. A person who is well connected is still the king of England. But if you humiliate a young person, you take away the only form of power they have.
Chuck Palahniuk
Writing is like sex, if it's difficult you're not doing it right.
Chuck Palahniuk

Chuck Palahniuk
Someday you will die, and until you know that, you're useless to me.
Chuck Palahniuk
Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on.
Chuck Palahniuk
I will never write a sequel to anything that I will ever write.
Chuck Palahniuk
The only difference between suicide and martyrdom is press coverage.
Chuck Palahniuk
Shotgunning anybody in this room would be the moral equivalent of killing a car, a Barbie doll, a vacuum cleaner. We're all such products.
Chuck Palahniuk
My books are always about someone obtaining a power to replace the previous sort of power that they held.
Chuck Palahniuk
On a night without moon or stars you can't see a thing, but you can imagine anything.
Chuck Palahniuk
You gain power by pretending to be weak.
Chuck Palahniuk
You grow up to become living proof of your parents' limitations. Their less-than masterpiece.
Chuck Palahniuk
I came to Party Crashing because accidents happen. People you love will die. Nothing you treasure will last forever. And I need to accept and embrace that fact.
Chuck Palahniuk
In truth, the degree of anyone's success depends on how often they can say the word yes and hear the word no.
Chuck Palahniuk
Don’t ask me when because I don’t remember, but somewhere along the way I keep forgetting to commit suicide.
Chuck Palahniuk
