And I’m fine with that.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) For six months I couldn’t sleep. With insomnia, nothing’s real. Everything is far away. Everything is a copy of a copy of a copy.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) My grandfather was hit over the head by a crane boom in Seattle. Some of the family claimed he was never a violent, crazy person before that. Some say he was. It depends who you believe.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) I am the all-singing, all-dancing crap of this world.... I am the toxic waste by-product of God’s creation.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) I never think I’m making fun of my culture. In fact I’m making fun of myself, because I catch myself doing some very stupid things.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) I’ve always been very curious about fringe cultures where people temporarily adopt a different social model or way of presenting themselves.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) I always really curious to see how people interpret things. I know my version, and I’m kind of bored with my version so I want to see their version.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) This is less teaching than damage control. You may as well paint a house that’s on fire.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) If nothing else, there’s comfort in recognising that no matter how much we fail and sin, death will limit our suffering.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) A comedy ends with a wedding, and a tragedy ends with a funeral: you always have to juxtapose sex and death.  (Chuck Palahniuk Quotes) The pretentiousness of literature really annoys me; the way a writer is held as this sort of magical person to be revered on the stage.
