Real smarts begin when you quit quoting other people.

That's why I write, because life never works except in retrospect. You can't control life, at least you can control your version.

On a night without moon or stars you can't see a thing, but you can imagine anything.

I love everything about Tyler Durden, his courage and his smarts. His nerve. Tyler is funny and charming and forceful and independent, and men look up to him and expect him to change their world. Tyler is capable and free, and I am not.

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

Anytime my work can coax bodily fluids out of someone, I'm happy.

The only person we'll hate more than each other is ourselves.
