Neil Strauss
When the Internet first came into public use, it was hailed as a liberation from conformity, a floating world ruled by passion, creativity, innovation and freedom of information. When it was hijacked first by advertising and then by commerce, it seemed like it had been fully co-opted and brought into line with human greed and ambition.

Instead of saying they loved me or showing physical attention, they would joke that I had a Roman nose - that it was roamin' all over my face. Teasing was their way of showing love, but then you are young, sometimes you can't tell the difference.
Neil Strauss
A good organizer is key to anyone with a busy social life.
Neil Strauss
I've seen rock stars agonize over the fact that another artist has far more Facebook 'likes' and Twitter followers than they do.
Neil Strauss
Rapport equals trust plus comfort.
Neil Strauss
Those who ask for help are often those who have failed to do something for themselves.
Neil Strauss
People don't come out for book events. They want to feel an emotion and be entertained.
Neil Strauss
Men are a hundred times worse than you can imagine. We are thinking the worst, shallowest thoughts, all the time.
Neil Strauss
We're just fragile machines programmed with a false sense of our own importance. And every now and then the universe sends a reminder that we don't really matter to it.
Neil Strauss
It’s not lying, it’s flirting.
Neil Strauss
Never ask a woman if you may kiss her. Instead, learn to read body language.
Neil Strauss
