Fathers. Mothers. With all their caring and attention. They will fuck you up, every time.
Chuck Palahniuk
You realize that there's no point in doing anything if nobody's watching. You wonder, if there had been a low turnout at the crucifixion, would they have rescheduled?
Chuck Palahniuk
We live and we die and anything else is just a delusion.
Chuck Palahniuk
Because nothing is as good as you can imagine it. No one is as beautiful as she is in your head. Nothing is as exciting as your fantasy.
Chuck Palahniuk
The amazing miracle of death, when one second you're walking and talking, and the next second you're an object.
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
In the big factory of perfecting human souls, the Earth was kind of tumbler. The sale as the kind people use to polish rocks. All souls come here to rub the sharp edges off each other. This isn't suffering. It's erosion.
Chuck Palahniuk
A good story should make you laugh, and a moment later break your heart.
Chuck Palahniuk
When we don't know who to hate, we hate ourselves.
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
I want you to invent it. I want you to have that skill. To create your own reality. Your own set of laws. I want to try and teach you that.
Chuck Palahniuk
Get through the moment. Avoid confrontation. Run away. That's pretty much how we get through our own lives, watching television. Smoking crap. Self-medicating. Redirecting our own attention. Jacking off. Denial.
Chuck Palahniuk
I disconnect the telephone to keep the outside world in it's correct place.
Chuck Palahniuk
Give me rampant intellectualism as a coping mechanism.
Chuck Palahniuk
There's an opposite to déjà vu. They call it jamais vu. It's when you meet the same people or visit places, again and again, but each time is the first. Everybody is always a stranger. Nothing is ever familiar.
Chuck Palahniuk
Get married before the sex gets boring or you'll never get married.
Chuck Palahniuk
People have to really suffer before they can risk doing what they love.
Chuck Palahniuk
Katherine Kenton remains among the generation of women who feel that the most sincere form of flattery is the male erection.
Chuck Palahniuk
To a certain extent everybody has a certain sort of way of being a persona that they learn how to be when they're really little. They figure out that if they're really funny, or really pretty, or if they work really, really hard or are really smart, then that's what's going to get them by. That is what is going to make people like them.
Chuck Palahniuk
A writer's job is to cultivate what can go wrong. You're always looking for that dramatic arc of where things can fail.
