Chuck Palahniuk
If there’s any trick to doing a job you hate . . . Mrs. Clark says it’s to find a job you hate even more.

Chuck Palahniuk
The gyms you go to are crowded with guys trying to look like men, as if being a man means looking the way a sculptor or an art director says.
Chuck Palahniuk
I am Joe's Enraged, Inflamed, sense of rejection.
Chuck Palahniuk
Imagine how you’d feel if your whole life turned into a job you couldn’t stand.
