Be careful in dealing with a man who cares nothing for sensual pleasures,nothing for comfort or praise or promotion,but is imply determined to do what he believes to be right.He is dangerous and uncomfortable enemy because his body which you can always conquer gives you so little purchase over his soul.

Some Chuck Palahniuk quotes:

"Game shows are designed to make us feel better about the random, useless facts that are all we have left of our education"




"People used what they called a telephone because they hated being close together and they were scared of being alone."




"What we call chaos is just patterns we haven't recognized. What we call random is just patterns we cant decipher. What we can't understand we call nonsense. What we can't read we call gibberish. There is no free will. There are no variables. There is only the inevitable."




"It's funny how you never think about the women you've had. It's always the ones who get away that you can't forget."




"The only reason why we ask other people how their weekend was is so we can tell them about our own weekend."




"The one you love and the one who loves you are never, ever the same person."




"The only way to find true happiness is to risk being completely cut open."




"'I want out of the labels. I don't want my whole life crammed into a single word. A story. I want to find something else, unknowable, some place to be that's not on the map. A real adventure.'A spinx. A mystery. A blank. Unknown. Undefined."




"If people thought you were dying, they gave you their full attention."




"If you can wake up in a different place. If you can wake up in a different time. Why can't you wake up as a different person?"




"Maybe we have to break everything to make something better out of ourselves."




"If I can't be beautiful, I want to be invisible."




"The answer is there is no answer."




"Sometimes the past seems too big for the present to hold."




"Did you ever think about life as a metaphor for television?"

Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to the end, requires some of the same courage which a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men to win them.

"I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing."

THOSE who pause and hesitate and are the most cautious before entering into the spirit of an entirely new scheme are to be generally far more relied upon, than those who rush into every new enterprise like so many flies into a bowl of boiling milk.

Life continually evolves. We’re always moving into new experiences, new possibilities. This constant change unsettles the personality, which finds security in stability. But with life always in flux, that security is an illusion. We experience pain by trying to hold on to things that are not solid.

Life becomes joyful when we can open to the constant flow and ride freely with it. This requires us to let go of the need to control. We need to learn to trust.

Can it then be that what we call the ‘self’ is fluid and elastic? It evolves, strikes a different balance with every new breath.
