Worker bees can leave.
Even drones can fly away.
The Queen is their slave. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
I think a lot of people saw 'Fight Club' and thought, 'Right, here's our next Che Guevara, here's our next Fidel Castro, here's someone who's going to wave the flag.' And I was like, 'No, it's just a book. And if I beat that drum, if I play that song one more time, I won't have a career.' ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
For this moment, nothing matters. Look up into the stars and you're gone. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
They've been talking about Pi, which I haven't seen, they've been comparing it to Usual Suspects, Sixth Sense, and Fight Club, and I didn't see that either. ~ Joe Pantoliano
Fight Club quotes by Joe Pantoliano
You're probably good at taking lip, aren't you?" I mutter more to myself than to my bodyguard, clawing through the suitcase for a T-shirt that isn't tight on me. "Like a CIA operative, right? Do bodyguards go to bodyguard school? Are you like the hitman in Hitman?"

He adjusts his cuffs. "You know the rule about fight club?"

I give him a surprised look. "So you can talk!"

He raises a single eyebrow. "I will be right outside your door if you need me. You have to be down at the lot in twenty minutes. I suggest you hurry." Then he takes his burly frame and saunters out of the room.

I shove my head into a clean shirt and pull my arms through just as my phone blips.

There's a message. Well, two messages.

Gail 8:36 AM

- HIS NAME IS LONNY. BE NICE.

"Lonny?" That name definitely is not fit for a three-hundred-pound machine of total annihilation, but okay ~ Ashley Poston
Fight Club quotes by Ashley Poston
Checkmate to us I think,' Cyrus said softly. 'Now listen to me,' he said, dropping his gaze to Evie. 'If you want protection you can come with us now. Your boyfriend, however, is one of them. And what's rule number three, Vero?'
'Kill all unhumans,' the girl answered flatly.
'Jesus,' Evie said, bringing her hands quickly to Cyrus's chest and pushing him hard. He fell backwards a few steps. 'This is not Fight Club,' she yelled. 'You can break a rule for Chrissake. ~ Sarah Alderson
Fight Club quotes by Sarah Alderson
If people thought you were dying they gave you their full attention. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
I am Jack's broken heart. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
Only two guys to a fight. One fight at a time. They fight without shirts or shoes. The fights go on as long as they have to. Those are the other rules of fight club. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
The sixth rule of Fight Club: No shirt, no shoes. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
What now? We can't go to my place or the hospital or the fight club. Should we lay low at the grocery store? ~ Lisa Kessler
Fight Club quotes by Lisa Kessler
All these teachers and [screenwriting] books mean you see movies that have been worked over by more committees wielding more rules, that all originality and authorship is lost. That's why you're seeing superstars like Brad Pitt in THE FIGHT CLUB and Tom Cruise in MAGNOLIA. They're desperately searching for people writing and directing off-formula movies. ~ Paul Schrader
Fight Club quotes by Paul Schrader
You become very angry and depressed that you keep getting offered only these exceedingly demure and repressed roles. They're so not me. That's why films like Fight Club were so important to me because I think I confounded certain stereotypes and limited perceptions of what I could do as an actress. ~ Helena Bonham Carter
Fight Club quotes by Helena Bonham Carter
I'll never recover if he breaks my heart. ~Brooke ~ Katy Evans
Fight Club quotes by Katy Evans
Love and life belongs to great risk. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
We want you, not your money. As long as you're at fight club, you're not how much money you've got in the bank. You're not your job. You're not your family, and you're not who you tell yourself. You're not your name. You're not your problems. You're not your age. You are not your hopes. You will not be saved. We are all going to die, someday. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
– As long as you're at fight club, you're not how much money you've got in the bank. You're not your job. You're not your family, and you're not who you tell yourself. You're not your name. You're not your problems. You're not your age. You're not your hopes. You will not be saved. We are all going to die, someday.

This time, the oncoming car swerves, but the mechanic swerves hack into its path. The car swerves, and the mechanic matches it, headon, again.

You melt and swell at that moment. For that moment, nothing matters. Look up at the stars and you're gone. Not your luggage. Nothing matters. Not your bad breath. The windows are dark outside and the horns are blaring around you. The headlights are flashing high and low and high in your face, and you will never have to go to work again. You will never have to get another haircut.

– Quick, – the mechanic says. – What, – he says, – what will you wish you'd done before you died?

Ten seconds to impact... ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
The first rule of cannibal mermaid fight club is don't talk about cannibal mermaid fight club. ~ Kali Wallace
Fight Club quotes by Kali Wallace
What did Kavinsky say about it?" Chris asks me.
"Nothing yet. He's still at lacrosse practice."
My phone immediately starts to buzz, and the three of us look at each other, wide-eyed. Margot picks it up and looks at it. "It's Peter!" She hot-potatoes the phone to me. "Let's give them some privacy," she says, nudging Chris. Chris shrugs her off.
I ignore both of them and answer the phone. "Hello." My voice comes out thin as a reed.
Peter starts talking fast. "Okay, I've seen the video, and the first thing I'm going to say to you is don't freak out." He's breathing hard; it sounds like he's running.
"Don't freak out? How can I not? This is terrible. Do you know what they're all saying about me in the comments? That I'm a slut. They think we're having sex in that video, Peter."
"Never read the comments, Covey! That's the first rule of--"
"If you say 'Fight Club' to me right now, I will hang up on you."
"Sorry. Okay, I know it sucks but--"
"It doesn't 'suck.' It's a literal nightmare. My most private moment, for everybody to see. I'm completely humiliated. The things people are saying--" My voice breaks. Kitty and Margot and Chris are all looking at me with sad eyes, which makes me feel even sadder.
"Don't cry, Lara Jean. Please don't cry. I promise you I'm going to fix this. I'm going to get whoever runs Anonybitch to take it down."
"How? We don't even know who they are! And besides, I bet our whole school's seen it by now. ~ Jenny Han
Fight Club quotes by Jenny Han
One of the reasons I got into fighting was because I'd never really been in a fight. It's like in Fight Club, the famous line, 'How much can you really know about yourself if you've never been in a fight?' ... It's the the clearest mirror you'll ever stand in front of. ~ Jon Fitch
Fight Club quotes by Jon Fitch
First Rule of the coven is-"
"We don't talk about the coven?" I joked, but my Fight Club reference was not well received. ~ C.E. Dimond
Fight Club quotes by C.E. Dimond
The door to my boss's office is always closed now, and we haven't traded more than two words any day since he found the fight club rules in the copy machine and I maybe implied I might gut him with a shotgun blast. Just me clowning around, again. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
And it [Fight Club novel] was written so general that my father thought I was writing about his father, and my boss thought I was writing about his boss. People really put themselves, you know, in the shoes of the narrator. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
To me, Fight Club was a comedy. When [David] Fincher sent me the book and I read it, the first thing I asked him was, "This is a comedy, right?" he said, "Yeah, that's the whole point," and I said, "Okay, I'm in." I certainly wasn't imagining myself as a dramatic actor when I was running around in my underwear in that film. ~ Edward Norton
Fight Club quotes by Edward Norton
So much of 'Fight Club' was a rant against fathers. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
When I first started writing, there was no way I'd write a sex scene. That just seemed impossible. That's why in "Fight Club" all the sex happens off-screen. It's all just a noise on the other side of the wall or the ceiling. I just couldn't bring to write in a scene like that. So one of the challenges with "Choke" was I wanted to write sex scenes until I was really comfortable just writing them in a very mechanical way. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
Where would Jesus be if no one had written the gospels? ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
The crap and the trash of the world. Post-consumer human butt wipe that no one would ever go to the trouble to recycle. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
Much-derided chick lit, chick flicks, and chick magazines have left ambitious women in a bind. Why is it that I, a young woman, can read 'GQ,' enjoy 'Fight Club,' and subscribe to 'Thrillist,' while the idea of a guy doing the same with 'Glamour,' '27 Dresses' and 'Daily Candy' is nearly unheard of? ~ Kathryn Minshew
Fight Club quotes by Kathryn Minshew
Generations have been working in jobs they hate, just so they can buy what they don't really need. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
I tagged a first-timer one night at fight club. That Saturday night, a young guy with an angel's face came to his first fight club, and I tagged him for a fight. That's the rule. If it's your first night in fight club, you have to fight. I knew that so I tagged him because the insomnia was on again, and I was in a mood to destroy something beautiful. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
After fight club you're so relaxed, you just cannot care. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
The first step to eternal life is you have to die. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
The world is going crazy. My boss is dead. My home is gone. My job is
gone. And I'm responsible for it all.
There's nothing left.
I'm overdrawn at the bank.
Step over the edge.
The police tape flutters between me and oblivion.
Step over the edge.
What else is there?
Step over the edge.
There's Marla.
Jump over the edge. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
The first step to eternal live is you have to die. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
At the time, my life just seemed too complete, and maybe we have to break everything to make something better out of ourselves. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
A minute of perfection was worth the effort. A moment was the most you could ever expect from perfection. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
There is a social contract in "Fight Club" and in "Choke" where the protagonist has deceived a whole bunch of people. In "Choke" it's all of these people who think that they've saved his life, and really care about him because they've embraced him and they've been his saviors. In "Fight Club" it's all of these people who are dying of various diseases, and they thought that Edward Norton was also dying so they allowed him really strong pent-up emotions. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
I used to work in a funeral home to feel good about myself, just the fact that I was breathing. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
Only after disaster can we be resurrected. It's only after you've lost everything that you're free to do anything. Nothing is static, everything is evolving, everything is falling apart. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
Paugh!" the troll scoffed. "Romance. Kissing and folly. Where's the story, where's the philosophy? I'm a troll, and even I can't rip a bodice. You should read real literature. The classics." He held up a book called Ye Olde Clubbe of Fisticuffs. "This is one of my favorites. It's all about, like, rejecting capitalism." He held up another, the spine as yet uncracked, called Alliance of Nincompoops. "Or this one, about a misunderstood genius. You should read it. I'd love to chat about what the true meaning of success is when we're living in a world that values looks instead of substance. ~ Delilah S. Dawson
Fight Club quotes by Delilah S. Dawson
Now this is the first rule of fight club: There is nothing a blue collar Nobody in Oregon with a public school education can imagine that a million-billion people haven't already done ... ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
In 'Se7en' and 'Fight Club,' Fincher proved his suave mastery of film violence; in Zodiac, his way of clarifying the many clues in a murder thriller. As he showed in 'The Social Network,' the director also knows that no wound is more toxic than a friend's betrayal. ~ Richard Corliss
Fight Club quotes by Richard Corliss
And finally, and most importantly, the next time we go to war, don't give a specific reason for the war that the left can seize upon and later flog us with it ad nauseam, just do it. Remember, the first rule of Fight Club is that you don't talk about Fight Club. ~ Dennis Miller
Fight Club quotes by Dennis Miller
No, this wasn't about money. Not everything is about money ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
How could I forget the man who can break uncountable bones just in a few seconds. ~ Waheed Ibne Musa
Fight Club quotes by Waheed Ibne Musa
I get a lot of letters from women who insist that 'Fight Club' is not just a guy thing. They insist that women have the same rage and need the same outlet. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
On a long enough time line, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
My oldest son used to say his stomach had angries when he felt sick.
I always pictured an all night fight club for finger foods!! ~ Neil Leckman
Fight Club quotes by Neil Leckman
This is one of mommy's friends, buddy," I told Gavin. (...)
"You're Mommy's fwiend?" he questioned.
Carter just nodded with his mouth open and no sound coming out. I'm pretty sure he didn't even hear Gavin. Someone could have asked him if he liked to watch gay porn while painting pictures of kittens and he would have nodded his head. Before anyone could react, Gavin pulled back one of his little fists of fury and slammed it right into Carters manhood. He immediately bent over at the waist, clutching his hands between his legs and gasping for breath.
"Oh my God! Gavin!" I yelled, as I scrambled over to him, bent down and turned him around to face me while my dad and Liz laughed like hyenas behind me.
"What is wrong with you? We don't hit people. EVER," I scolded.
While Carter tried to breathe again, my dad managed to stop laughing long enough to apologize.
"Sorry, Claire, that's probably my fault. I let Gavin watch "Fight Club" with me last night."
"Your fwiends got you sick the other night. You said he was your fwiend," Gavin explained, like it made all the sense in the world.
This just made my dad laugh even louder.
"Not helping, Dad," I growled through clenched teeth.
"You don't make my mommy sick, dicky-punk!"
Gavin yelled at Carter, putting his two little fingers up by his eyes, and then pointing them right at Carter just like Liz had done to him earlier.
"Jesus Christ," Carter wheezed. "Did he just th ~ Tara Sivec
Fight Club quotes by Tara Sivec
I'm sorry, but why does Claire know how to take a punch? I'm not sure I like where this is going," Carter said nervously.
"Well, last year Jim made us watch Fight Club for like, the ten- thousandth time. And while I'm all for a little shirtless Brad Pitt action, Claire and I decided to take a shot every time Edward Norton talked in third person. By about twenty minutes in, we were trashed. I don't know whose idea it was, but Claire and I started our own fight club in the living room," Liz explained.
"It was your idea, Liz. You stood up in front of me, lifted your shirt and said "Punch me in the stomach as hard as you can, fucker. ~ Tara Sivec
Fight Club quotes by Tara Sivec
I think, in a way, I invented the term 'fight club' and that these things have always existed, but they never really had a label. Nobody had a language to apply to them. I created that language in two words and I've been paid a great deal of money for inventing two words and labeling something that has always been around. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
If we wish for our country to have an exponentially brighter future, one of the things we need to change is the popular perception some kids have towards school. School is not a prison, it is not a night club, it is not a fight club; school is for learning, learning is the thing that begins the process of separating us from the animals. ~ Joshua Neik
Fight Club quotes by Joshua Neik
As my future crumbled before my eyes, I grasped for the rope. My entire life's struggle was ending here, in plain view of my enemies. How was it possible? Had had I let things come to this? ~ Tony McMahon
Fight Club quotes by Tony McMahon
When I first used to tour, guys would come up and say, 'Where's the fight club in my area?' and I would say, 'There isn't one.' And they'd say, 'No, no, you can tell me, you can tell me.' ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
It's only their fight club, Liss," I said, having no need for her side of the conversation, "Nothing's going on. They're going to talk punches and kicking and other boring stuff."
Well, actually that stuff was pretty sweet, but I wasn't about to glorify Christian and Mia hanging out.
"Maybe now nothing's going on," she growled, staring stonily ahead. "But who knows what could happen? They spend time together, practice some physical moves, one thing leads to another - "
"That's ridiculous," I said. "That kind of stuff isn't romantic at all."
Another lie, seeing as that was exactly how my relationship with Dimitri had begun. Again, best not to mention that. ~ Richelle Mead
Fight Club quotes by Richelle Mead
Never read the comments, Covey! That's the first rule of-"
"If you say 'Fight Club' to me right now, I will hang up on you. ~ Jenny Han
Fight Club quotes by Jenny Han
There was one fledgling PUA, in particular, whom Papa bonded with: a twenty-two-year-old Canadian who had discovered the pickup scene when his mother stumbled across a seduction website. He called himself Tyler Durden, after the seditious character in Fight Club. And like a virus or a demagogue (choose your simile), he would eventually change the course of the community and everyone in it. He ~ Neil Strauss
Fight Club quotes by Neil Strauss
No matter how many modern parts I do, people still refer to me as Mrs. Costume Drama. Fight Club is a studio pic, and I've done very few of those. I've got a feeling it's going to change things for me. ~ Helena Bonham Carter
Fight Club quotes by Helena Bonham Carter
When the 'Fight Club' movie was going into production, I quit my job so I could write full-time. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
When you're twenty-four," Marla says, "you have no idea how far you can really fall, but I was a fast learner. ~ Chuck Palahniuk

If you don't know about Tumblr then you are not supposed to know about Tumblr. It's like fight club. ~ John Green
Fight Club quotes by John Green
It's interesting because when David Fincher was making "Fight Club," he said, "It's a romance." And it really is. Almost everything I ever write is just a romance. And that needed to be sort of pointed up at the end of "Fight Club." The film has a very different ending than the book does. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
I let go. Lost in oblivion. Dark and silent and complete. I found freedom. Losing all hope was freedom. ~ Chuck Palahniuk
Fight Club quotes by Chuck Palahniuk
I have never had to fight so hard to take a breath. ~ Amy A. Bartol
Fight Club quotes by Amy A. Bartol
One day you'll meet someone who will consume your very soul. When you meet that person, you'll know. And if that person ever tries to leave you, fight for them, because once they're gone, life will become a chore. ~ Belle Aurora
Fight Club quotes by Belle Aurora
Her ancestors would fight for her spirit, but so too would the white devils who had come to rule. They had taken first our land and then our souls. ~ Selina Siak Chin Yoke
Fight Club quotes by Selina Siak Chin Yoke
After defending the value of prepared prayers, the author cautions against over-reliance on them. Just as David could not fight in the armor of King Saul, we are called to fight in the way God has equipped us uniquely. ~ N. T. Wright
Fight Club quotes by N. T. Wright
You lay claim to your stories; you honor, with your hard work and the best of your talent, their inspirations, and you fight to tell them well from a sense of indebtedness and thankfulness. The ambiguities, the contradictions, the complexities of your choices are always with you in your writing as they are in your life. You learn to live with them. You trust your need to have a dialogue about what you deem important. ~ Bruce Springsteen
Fight Club quotes by Bruce Springsteen
I am banished from the patient men who fight.
They smote my heart to pity, built my pride.
Shoulder to aching shoulder, side by side,
They trudged away from life's broad wealds of light.
Their wrongs were mine; and ever in my sight
They went arrayed in honour. But they died,
Not one by one: and mutinous I cried
To those who sent them out into the night.
The darkness tells how vainly I have striven
To free them from the pit where they must dwell
In outcast gloom convulsed and jagged and riven
By grappling guns. Love drove me to rebel.
Love drives me back to grope with them through hell;
And in their tortured eyes I stand forgiven. ~ Siegfried Sassoon
Fight Club quotes by Siegfried Sassoon
I have known many happy marriages, but never a compatible one. The whole aim of marriage is to fight through and survive the instant when incompatibility becomes unquestionable. For a man and a woman, as such, are incompatible. ~ G.K. Chesterton
Fight Club quotes by G.K. Chesterton
Stubborn selfishness leads otherwise good people to fight over herds, patches of sand, and strippings of milk. All this results from what the Lord calls coveting "the drop," while neglecting the "more weighty matters." (D&C 117:8) Myopic selfishness magnifies a mess of pottage and makes thirty pieces of silver look like a treasure trove. In our intense acquisitiveness, we forget Him who once said, "What is property unto me?" ~ Neal A. Maxwell
Fight Club quotes by Neal A. Maxwell
Suddenly she was distracted by the feel of a strange object underneath her palm, pressed flat against his chest. There was a hard lump in the inside pocket of his coat. She frowned curiously. Before Derek realized what she was doing, she reached inside the garment to investigate.
"No," he said swiftly, his large hand gripping her wrist to stop her.
But it was too late; her fingers had already encountered the object and identified it. With a disbelieving look on her face, Sara pulled out the tiny pair of spectacles she thought she had lost at the club. "Why?" she whispered, amazed that he was carrying them in his breast pocket.
He met her gaze defiantly, his jaw set. A small muscle twitched his cheek.
Then she understood. "Are you having problems with your sight, Mr. Craven?" she asked softly. "Or is it your heart? ~ Lisa Kleypas
Fight Club quotes by Lisa Kleypas
You can read all the books in the world on the Nazi concentration camps and the gas chambers, and yet reality will draw upon you only when you are put through that yourself. It is a law of God, or nature, if you prefer, that pain, suffering and grief cannot be transferred or known by proxy. Neither empathy nor sympathy but experience alone is a valid currency of affliction. It alone makes you a card-holding member all allows you to join the club of the wretched of the earth. All else is counterfeit. ~ Kiran Nagarkar
Fight Club quotes by Kiran Nagarkar
Love that's dead won't put up a fight. ~ Christina Coryell
Fight Club quotes by Christina Coryell
When I came into boxing, when it was more out of control, no fighters got an opportunity to fight. I came in: everybody got an opportunity to make a living in America. ~ Don King
Fight Club quotes by Don King
When I moped for too long, letting the poor-me blues clamp around my ankles and drag me down to very bad places, he would fight to get me back, ~ Piper Kerman
Fight Club quotes by Piper Kerman
Just as we tell women today to vote, in honour of the suffragettes who campaigned for the right to do so, we owe it to these female sports pioneers to draw inspiration from their stories, to continue the fight. ~ Anna Kessel
Fight Club quotes by Anna Kessel
Good leaders wait to be called and they give up their power when they are no longer needed. Selfish men and fools put themselves first and keep their power until someone throws them out. It is no good to have a way where selfish men and fools fight with each other to be leaders, while the good ones watch. ~ Kent Nerburn
Fight Club quotes by Kent Nerburn
Perhaps peace is not, after all, something you work for, or 'fight for.' It is indeed 'fighting for peace' that starts all the wars. What, after all, are the pretexts of all these Cold War crises, but 'fighting for peace?' Peace is something you have or do not have. If you are yourself at peace, then there is at least some peace in the world. Then share your peace with everyone, and everyone will be at peace. ~ Thomas Merton
Fight Club quotes by Thomas Merton
Gone Groupy, has she?' said Hugh. 'How rotten for Tom!' 'Well, it is rather, because Connie's started forgiving him for all sorts of things he never knew he'd done. We're hoping that she'll get over it quickly, because she's president of the Women's Conservative Association, besides running the Mothers, and the Village Club, and now that she's a God-guided citizen she simply hasn't a moment to attend to Good Works. I don't know why it is, but when people get Changed they never seem to be as nice as they were before. ~ Georgette Heyer
Fight Club quotes by Georgette Heyer
Imperfection is inherited, therefore we all sin, but fighting the war of sin is the greatest war of all because we all die in the end no matter how hard we fight. ~ Tupac Shakur
Fight Club quotes by Tupac Shakur
At some point my friends and I began to ask, how can a country that produced hippies and such cool people also fight a war and kill people and act cruelly? You would see American GMC trucks go by and soldiers reaching down to whack a girl riding a bicycle. They would yank at her hat and she would get thrown and she would die. You would see Americans do this and feel like they can do anything in our country. But then you'd take an English class with an American soldier from Ohio who seemed just as nice as anyone, yet he was a soldier too. ~ Nguyen Qui Duc
Fight Club quotes by Nguyen Qui Duc
This book will prove the following ten facts:
1. A Goon is a being who melts into the foreground and sticks there.
2. Pigs have wings, making them hard to catch.
3. All power corrupts, but we need electricity.
4. When an irresistible force meets an immovable object, the result is a family fight.
5. Music does not always sooth the troubled beast.
6. An Englishman's home is his castle.
7. The female of the species is more deadly than the male.
8. One black eye deserves another.
9. Space is the final frontier, and so is the sewage farm.
10. It pays to increase your word power. ~ Diana Wynne Jones
Fight Club quotes by Diana Wynne Jones
Musing takes place in a kind of meadowlands of the imagination, a part of the imagination that has not yet been plowed, developed, or put to any immediately practical use ... time spent there is not work time, yet without that time the mind becomes sterile, dull, domesticated. The fight for free space - for wilderness and public space - must be accompanied by a fight for free time to spend wandering in that space. ~ Rebecca Solnit
Fight Club quotes by Rebecca Solnit
Each man should be free to fight for his own salvation. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
Fight Club quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
I'm still very aware of the violence in our culture, more so than other people. I know where it comes from when someone is trying to suppress someone else, sometimes they fight back. ~ Jack Bowman
Fight Club quotes by Jack Bowman
I do, in fact, have a book club. I meet with a couple of guys once a month of a lunchtime discussion of some interesting text, usually, but not always, philosophical. ~ David Liss
Fight Club quotes by David Liss
Arthur spake, 'Behold, for these have sworn To wage my wars, and worship me their King; The old order changeth, yielding place to new; And we that fight for our fair father Christ, ~ Alfred Tennyson
Fight Club quotes by Alfred Tennyson
Your future can be whatever you wish. We all have the power to choose our own destiny. But, my sweet, if you play with those cards, you give the Fates pictured inside them the opportunity to shift your path. People use Decks of Destiny, similar to the one you just touched, to predict the future, and once a future is foretold, that future becomes a living thing, and it will fight very hard to bring itself about. ~ Stephanie Garber
Fight Club quotes by Stephanie Garber
He had called girls to him before. There was nothing so easy whether you were walking into a classroom, a club, or down the street. All you had to do was send out the right signals, give her the right look, turn your body the right way, and never for a moment let it cross your mind that she might not be interested. ~ Sarah Rees Brennan
Fight Club quotes by Sarah Rees Brennan
I come from a generation where I couldn't even contemplate such a thing. I find it amazing. You can become a multi-millionaire as a club player without playing international football. But international football is about individual pride and wanting to perform at the highest level. If I got picked at 41, I would have played, even if I thought I would make a fool of myself. I just wanted to play for my country. ~ Trevor Brooking

Do not pamper me, human. Elves train both their men and women to fight. I am not one of your helpless females to run away whenever there is danger. ~ Christopher Paolini
Fight Club quotes by Christopher Paolini
But I'm going back, and when I do, I'm going to fight for her.
It could take me days, weeks, months, years. It doesn't fucking matter. Because I won't just be fighting for her, I'll be fighting you too. And if I ever get her back, it'll be my life's biggest achievement. ~ Jay McLean
