More quotes by Gillian Flynn
Bang bang bang. I understand now why so many horror movies use that device-the mysterious knock on the door-because it has the weight of a nightmare. You don't know what's out there, yet you know you'll open it. You'll think what I think: No one bad ever knocks.
Gillian Flynn
We're into this barrage of pop culture - you know, TV, movies, the Internet. We become creatures that we've made up, made of certain different flotsam from pop culture and certain different personas that are in style.
Gillian Flynn
It’s humbling, to become the very thing you once mocked.
Gillian Flynn
She released her grievances like handfuls of birdseed: They are there, and they are gone.
Gillian Flynn
I'm a true-crime addict. It's not something I'm particularly proud of, but I can't stop.
Gillian Flynn
Problems always start long before you really, really see them.
Gillian Flynn
I often don't say things out loud, even when I should. I contain and compartmentalize to a disturbing degree: In my belly-basement are hundreds of bottles of rage, despair, fear, but you'd never guess from looking at me.
Gillian Flynn
I would have done anything to feel real again.
Gillian Flynn
To refuse has so many more consequences than submitting.
Gillian Flynn
Ah, well, being conflicted means you can live a shallow life without copping to be a shallow person.
Gillian Flynn
Safer to be feared than loved.
Gillian Flynn
A town so suffocating and small, you tripped over people you hated every day. People who knew things about you. It's the kind of place that leaves a mark.
Gillian Flynn
My dad had limitations. That's what my good-hearted mom always told us. He had limitations, but he meant no harm. It was kind of her to say, but he did do harm.
Gillian Flynn
I don't understand the point of being together if you're not the happiest.
Gillian Flynn
I'd come to believe there was no food more depressing than Danish, a pastry that seemed stale upon arrival
Gillian Flynn
I've suffered betrayal with all five senses. For over a year.
Gillian Flynn
I have a meanness inside me, real as an organ. Slit me at my belly and it might slide out, meaty and dark, drop on the floor so you could stomp on it.
Gillian Flynn
There’s something disturbing about recalling a warm memory and feeling utterly cold.
Gillian Flynn
I feel myself trying to be charming, and then I realize I’m obviously trying to be charming, and then I try to be even more charming to make up for the fake charm, and then I’ve basically turned into Liza Minnelli: I’m dancing in tights and sequins, begging you to love me. There’s a bowler and jazz hands and lots of teeth.
Gillian Flynn
I assumed everything bad in the world could happen, because everything bad in the world already did happen.
Gillian Flynn
