More quotes by Douglas Coupland
Feeling unique is no indication of uniqueness.
Douglas Coupland
The Sugar Frosted Nutsack is fantastic. It's volcanic and sexy and utterly unlike anything I've read before. It feels like the future in a dazzling way that has nothing to do with looking backward. It's been a long wait for a new novel from Mark Leyner, but worth it. Ten out of ten from me.
Douglas Coupland
You know what the best thing is about the end of the day? Tomorrow, it starts all over again.
Douglas Coupland
Do you ever just want to take your car out onto the highway and gun the engine as fast as you can and then close your eyes and see what happens?
Douglas Coupland
Where does personality end and brain damage begin?
Douglas Coupland
I don't think anyone ever gets over anything in life they merely get used to it.
Douglas Coupland
What surprises me about humanity is that in the end such a narrow range of plights defines our moral lives.
Douglas Coupland
Adventure without risk is Disneyland.
Douglas Coupland
I saw doves and I thought they were rocks, but they were asleep. My breath made them stir, and they rocks took flight, the earth exploding... and my only thought was that I wanted you to see them, too.
Douglas Coupland
There's nothing at the center of what we do...No center. It doesn't exist. All of us-look at our lives: We have an acceptable level of affluence. We have entertainment. We have a relative freedom from fear. But there's nothing else.
Douglas Coupland
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
You can't fake creativity, competence, or sexual arousal.
Douglas Coupland
As you grow older, it becomes harder to feel 100 percent happy you learn all the things that can go wrong, you become superstitious about tempting fate, about bringing disaster upon your life by accidentally feeling too good one day.
Douglas Coupland
How can I be a part of the 1960s generation when I don't even remember any of it?
Douglas Coupland
Youth is the time of life lived for some imaginary audience.
Douglas Coupland
Florida isn't so much a place where one goes to reinvent oneself, as it is a place where one goes if one no longer wished to be found.
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
Once he entered my life, I promptly forgot all my years of putting on a brave face while browsing at bookstores until closing time, and of having one, two, three beers while watching crime shows and CNN. I completely forgot the hateful sensation of loneliness, like thirst and hunger together pressing on my stomach.
Douglas Coupland
Inasmuch as I am a spiritual man, I do believe in God - I think that He created an order for the world I believe that, in constantly bombarding Him with requests for miracles, we're also asking that He unravel the fabric of the world. A world of continuous miracles would be a cartoon, not a world.
Douglas Coupland
Most people can't handle a structureless life.
