More quotes by Douglas Coupland
How can I be a part of the 1960s generation when I don't even remember any of it?
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
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
A ring is a halo on your finger.

Douglas Coupland
We're rapidly approaching a world comprised entirely of jail and shopping.
Douglas Coupland
I like the present. I'm always interested in new ideas, and what's happening. I'm not nostalgic.
Douglas Coupland
What is prayer but a wish for the events in your life to string together to form a story -- something that makes some sense of events you know have meaning.
Douglas Coupland
Sometimes I think God is like weather - you may not like the weather, but it has nothing to do with you. You just happen to be there. Deal with it. Sadness and grief are part of being human and always will be.
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
Happy. And then I got afraid that it would vanish as quickly as it came. That it was accidental-- that I didn't deserve it. It's like this very, very nice car crash that never ends.
Douglas Coupland
Ten commandments yet seven deadly sins: conflict?
Douglas Coupland
Blame is just a lazy person's way of making sense of chaos.
Douglas Coupland
Lottery tickets are a surtax on desperation.
