Douglas Coupland
Everyone has a special place they store their tension (I'm on shiatsu duty), the same way everyone misspells the same words over and over. Karla stores her tension in her rhomboid muscles, and I remove it. This is making me feel good. That I can do this.
Douglas Coupland

Douglas Coupland
If a building looks better under construction than it does when finished, then it's a failure.
Douglas Coupland
I used to care about how other people thought I led my life. But lately I've realized that most people are too preoccupied with their own lives to give anybody else even the scantiest of thoughts.
Douglas Coupland
It's very strange that most people don't care if their knowledge of their family history only goes back three generations.
Douglas Coupland
At least when you're young you're also stupid.
Douglas Coupland
I thought about how odd it is for billions of people to be alive, yet not one of them is really quite sure of what makes people people. The only activities I could think of that humans do that have no animal equivalent were smoking, body-building and writing. That's not much, considering how special we seem to think we are.
Douglas Coupland
How can I be a part of the 1960s generation when I don't even remember any of it?
Douglas Coupland
I say ‘Uhmm...’ a lot. I mentioned this to Karla and she says it’s a CPU word. It means you’re assembling data in your head - spooling.
