Jump way back to one time, Evie and me did this fashion shoot in a junk yard, in a slaughterhouse, in a mortuary. We'd go anywhere to look good by comparison, and what I realize is mostly what I hate about Evie is the fact that she's so vain and stupid and needy. But what I hate most is how she's just like me. What I really hate is me so I hate pretty much everybody.
Chuck PalahniukThink of a rock polisher, one of those drums, goes round and round, rolls twenty-four/seven, full of water and rocks and gravel. Grinding it all up. Round and round. Polishing those ugly rocks into gemstones. Thatโs the earth. Why it goes around. Weโre the rocks. And what happens to usโthe drama and pain and joy and war and sickness and victory and abuseโwhy, thatโs just the water and sand to erode us. Grind us down. To polish us up, nice and bright.
Chuck PalahniukAs we grow older I always think, why didn't I do more when I was young, why didn't I risk more?
