More quotes by Chuck Palahniuk

Brandy is so attractive you could chop her head off and put it on blue velvet in the window at Tiffany's and somebody would buy it for a million dollars.
Chuck Palahniuk
What do you do when your entire identity is destroyed in an instant? How do you cope when your whole life story turns out to bw wrong?
Chuck Palahniuk
The worst part of writing fiction is the fear of wasting your life behind a keyboard. The idea that, dying, you'll realize you only lived on paper. Your only adventures were make-believe, and while the world fought and kissed, you sat in some dark room masturbating and making money.
Chuck Palahniuk

Kids, she says. When they’re little, they believe everything you tell them about the world.

After that, you’re either a liar or a fool or a villain.

Chuck Palahniuk
The more things you own, the more they own you.
Chuck Palahniuk
Every masterpiece is just dirt and ash put together in some perfect way.
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
The money is in television. Books are not the dominant medium of our time, so fewer people will create them. In a sad way, books have become a form of comfort food we expect to lull us to sleep.
Chuck Palahniuk
Everyone thinks their whole life should be at least as much fun as masturbation.
Chuck Palahniuk
How you're still always trapped. How your head is the cave, your eyes the cave mouth. How you live inside your head and only see what you want. How you only watch the shadows and make up your own meaning.
Chuck Palahniuk
Almost all the time, you tell yourself you're loving somebody when you're just using them. This only looks like love.
Chuck Palahniuk
I haven't shoplifted since I was 13.
