Tyler Durden

Since the last couple have been mind numbing long. I figured I would leave you with some great quotes from one of the greatest movies ever. I would tell you what movie it is but Rule #1 is that you dont talk about it....Rule #2 you dont talk about it...

"Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off."

Warning: If you are reading this then this warning is for you. Every word you read of this useless fine print is another second off your life. Don't you have other things to do? Is your life so empty that you honestly can't think of a better way to spend these moments? Or are you so impressed with authority that you give respect and credence to all that claim it? Do you read everything you're supposed to read? Do you think every thing you're supposed to think? Buy what you're told to want? Get out of your apartment. Meet a member of the opposite sex. Stop the excessive shopping and masturbation. Quit your job. Start a fight. Prove you're alive. If you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic.

You have been warned- Tyler

Should be a "didn't" between "but" and "watch".

You can all bite me! I'll see it when I see it. If it's that damn good why didn't it win an OSCAR?

None of the "good" movies ever win oscars. I have it on DVD. YOu can rent it from me.

will somebody please give me two better quotes than these two from movies?

LORD I MUST HAVE BEEN BLIND said...

1) one lie to attract them
one lie to gather them
one lie to hold them
and in their ignorance, blind them
2) To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken.If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avod all entanglements; lock it up in the coffin or your selfishness. But in that casket-safe, dark,motionless, airless - it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.
