Thursday, November 07, 2002 ( 12:08:00 PM ) Miss Scarlet Some quotes from my Book of the Month, Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk (the Fight Club guy FYI): ~...but then one days you're changing a patio lightbulb with a five-year life span and you realize hoow you'll only change this light maybe ten more times before you'll be dead. ~Today is just one of those days the sun comes out to really humiliate you. ~To the World He Was a Loser But to Me He Was the World. ~If you a tender, you didn't dream. ~Right now, me getting killed would be redundant. ~...not knowing that next week they'll be dead or unemployed depending on who works what shift. ~It would be safe to stand there for days and days but not for one second too long. ~What people forget is a journey to nowhere starts with a single step, too. ~...they're two peas trapped in the same boring pod. ~Because the only difference between a suicide and a martyrdom really is the amount of press coverage. ~If a tree falls in a forest and nobody is there to hear it, doesn't it just lie there and rot? ~Onstage, the spotlights are warm. ~What we call chaos is just patterms we haven't recognized. What we call random is just patterns we can't decipher. What we can't understand we call nonsense. What we can't read we call gibberish. ~Then she smiles and goes off to die. ~Do I know what a paper shredder does? ~I wonder if running is just another fix to a fix to a fix to a fix to a fix to a problem I can't remember. ~Outside the plastic, the world starts moving, sliding by, faster and faster until it's erased. ~"Even the garden of Eden was just a big fancy cage...You'll be a slave for the rest of your life unless you bite the apple." ~"Little brother," Adam says, "we need to get you laid." ~The trick, I say, is not to panic. ~Because if it wears off, this is all going to hurt so much. This is going to hurt for the rest of my life. ~You can't trust me around anybody's brother with a telephone or a rock. ~Practice really does make perfect. If you could call it that. Ok, That's it, just some things that struck me while I read it. But I definitely recommend it and after I read his other books I'll let you know how they are:) Peace... ~S #
