Give me lust, baby. Flash. Give me malice. Flash. Give me detached existentialist ennui. Flash. Give me rampant intellectualism as a coping mechanism. Flash.
Chuck Palahniuk

You hear the best stories from ordinary people. That sense of immediacy is more real to me than a lot of writerly, literary-type crafted stories. I want that immediacy when I read a novel.
Chuck Palahniuk
Image
The things you used to own, now they own you.
Chuck Palahniuk
Image
On a night without moon or stars you can't see a thing, but you can imagine anything.
