Chuck Palahniuk
Honest is how I want to look. The truth doesn't glitter and shine.
Chuck Palahniuk

Chuck Palahniuk
Since we do operate in a binary world, if there's something that cannot be this or that, it drives us crazy.
Chuck Palahniuk
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
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
When you're an addict, you can go without feeling anything except drunk or stoned or hungry. Still, when you compare this to other feelings, to sadness, anger, fear, worry, despair, and depression, well, an addiction no longer looks so bad. It looks like a very viable option.
Chuck Palahniuk
Did perpetual happiness in the Garden of Eden maybe get so boring that eating the apple was justified?
