More quotes by Douglas Coupland
Nobody cares about worthiness. People care about what is real inside of you.
Douglas Coupland
She thought about her life and how lost she’d felt for most of it. She thought about the way that all truths she’d been taught to consider valuable invariably conflicted with the world as it was actually lived. How could a person be so utterly lost, yet remain living?
Douglas Coupland
I think, there are people for whom freedom is a bigger, more important thing than stability.
Douglas Coupland
Destiny is what we work toward. The future doesn't exist yet. Fate is for losers!

I think that every reader on earth has a list of cherished books as unique as their fingerprints... I think that, as you age, you tend to gravitate towards the classics, but those aren't the books that give you the same sort of hope for the world that a cherished book does.
Douglas Coupland
We're all born lost, aren't we? We're all born separated from God - over and over life makes sure to inform us of this - and yet we're all real: we have names, we have lives. We mean something. We must.
Douglas Coupland
Quick. Name ten dead redheads.
Douglas Coupland
A good piece of technology dreams of the day when it will be replaced by a newer piece of technology. This is one definition of progress.
Douglas Coupland
Big companies are like marching bands. Even if half the band is playing random notes, it still sounds kind of like music. The concealment of failure is built into them.
Douglas Coupland
SAFETY NET-ISM: The belief that there will always be a financial and emotional safety net to buffer life's hurts. Usually parents.

NOSTALGIA IS A WEAPON
Douglas Coupland
I'm an adult. Discipline me and I'll bury you alive. - Roger
Douglas Coupland
ETHNOMAGNETISM: The tendency of young people to live in emotionally demonstrative, more unrestrained ethnic neighborhoods: 'You wouldn't understand it there, mother - they hug where I live now.'
