  • It's so hard to forget pain, but it's even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace. ― Diary
  • Nothing of me is original. I am the combined effort of everyone I've ever known. ― Invisible Monsters
  • The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think. The way they see themselves. The way they see the world. You can change the way people live their lives. That's the only lasting thing you can create. ― Choke
  • You realize that our mistrust of the future makes it hard to give up the past. ― Survivor
  • You are not your job, you're not how much money you have in the bank. You are not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You are not your fucking khakis. You are not special. You're not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else. ― Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club
  • We can spend our lives letting the world tell us who we are. Sane or insane. Saints or sex addicts. Heroes or victims. Letting history tell us how good or bad we are. Letting our past decide our future. Or we can decide for ourselves. And maybe it's our job to invent something better. ― Choke
  • You can only hold a smile for so long, after that it's just teeth. ― Invisible Monsters
  • You buy furniture. You tell yourself, this is the last sofa I will ever need in my life. Buy the sofa, then for a couple years you're satisfied that no matter what goes wrong, at least you've got your sofa issue handled. Then the right set of dishes. Then the perfect bed. The drapes. The rug. Then you're trapped in your lovely nest, and the things you used to own, now they own you. ― Fight Club
  • People don't want their lives fixed. Nobody wants their problems solved. Their dramas. their distractions. Their stories resolved. Their messes cleaned up. Because what would they have left? Just the big scary unknown. ― Survivor
  • People are all over the world telling their one dramatic story and how their life has turned into getting over this one event. Now their lives are more about the past than their future. ― Invisible Monsters
  • Because nothing is as good as you can imagine it. No one is as beautiful as she is in your head. Nothing is as exciting as your fantasy. ― Asfixia
