More quotes by Douglas Coupland
It's starts out young- you try not be different just to survive- you try to be just like everyone else- anonymity becomes reflexive- and then one day you wake up and you've become all those other people- the others- the something you aren't. And you wonder if you can ever be what it is you really are. Or you wonder if it's too late to find out.
Douglas Coupland

Douglas Coupland
The person who needs the other person the least in a relationship is the stronger member.
Douglas Coupland
Every single moment is a coincidence.
Douglas Coupland
Why do most of us make such boring choices for the stories of our lives?
Douglas Coupland
I kind of wonder if creativity is all morphing into one big thing that's not even art, but something universal and bigger.
Douglas Coupland
I like having a beard. My beard changes my face shape and allows me to see in it family members who I love and can't see otherwise.
Douglas Coupland
I curled myself into a ball and cried quietly, doing that thing that only young people can do, namely, feeling sorry for myself. Once you're past thirty you lose that ability instead of feeling sorry for yourself you turn bitter.
Douglas Coupland
The future and eternity are two entirely different things.
