This post is a collection of philosophical quotes from the movie Fight Club:
I say never be complete, I say stop being perfect, I say let's evolve, and let the chips fall where they may.
Stop trying to control everything and just let go.
You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fucking khakis. We are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world.
You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You are the same decaying organic matter as everything else.
The things you own, they end up owning you.
It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything.
You have to consider the possibility that God does not like you. He never wanted you. In all probability, he hates you. This is not the worst thing that can happen. We don't need Him.
Reject the basic assumption of civilization, especially the importance of material possessions!
Self-improvement is masturbation.
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.
