More quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
At That Moment, it seemed the whole world cared what happened to him. All those people were hugging him and petting his hair. Everybody asked if he was okay. It seemed that moment would last forever. That you had to risk your life to get love. You had to get right to the edge of death to ever be saved.
Chuck Palahniuk
The problem with educating stupid people was that they didn’t know they were stupid. The same went for curing crazy people.
Chuck Palahniuk
You gain power by pretending to be weak.
Chuck Palahniuk
That if you could acquire enough, accomplish enough, you’d never want to own or do another thing. That if you could eat or sleep enough, you’d never need more. That if enough people loved you, you’d stop needing love.
Chuck Palahniuk
Am I sleeping? Have I slept at all? This is insomnia.
Chuck Palahniuk
Books can create a depth of story, a background of information and ideas, that televison and movies can't. Sure, the television shows may shock, but only on a superficial level. They'd never risk market share to really explore the issues. They report, but don't analyze or suggest any new ways for living our lives.
Chuck Palahniuk
If you died right now, how would you feel about your life?
Chuck Palahniuk
We've spent so much time judging what other people created that we've created very, very little of our own.
Chuck Palahniuk
Don't rush or force the ending. All you have to know is the next scene, or the next few scenes.
Chuck Palahniuk
Every time we burn a gallon of gas or an acre of rain forest, aren't we killing the future to preserve the present?
Chuck Palahniuk
I was tired and crazy and rushed, and every time I boarded a plane, I wanted the plane to crash. I envied people dying of cancer. I hated my life. I was tired and bored with my job and my furniture, and I couldn’t see any way to change things. Only end them.
Chuck Palahniuk
The career of a movie star consists of helping everyone else forget their troubles. Using charm and beauty and good cheer to make life look easy.
Chuck Palahniuk
Why should I believe any of this?' It happens that fast. I say, because I think I like you. Marla says, 'Not love?' This is a cheesy enough moment, I say. Don't push it.
Chuck Palahniuk
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody is there to hear it, doesn't it just lie there and rot?
Chuck Palahniuk
There's a terrible dark joy when the only person who knows all your secrets is finally dead.
Chuck Palahniuk
The truth is, every son raised by a single mom is pretty much born married. I don't know, but until your mom dies it seems like all the other women in your life can never be more than just your mistress.
Chuck Palahniuk
Tyler's words coming out of my mouth. I used to be such a nice person.
Chuck Palahniuk
No, Miss Wright didn't want to meet her kid. To her, that relationship was just as important, just as ideal and impossible as it would be to the child. She'd expect that young man to be perfect, smart, and talented, everything to compensate for all the mistakes that she'd made. The whole wasted, unhappy mess of her life.
Chuck Palahniuk
This isn't about love as in caring. This is about property as in ownership.
Chuck Palahniuk
Not everything is about money. You didn't even say, hello. You are not your sad little wallet.
