"nothing of me is original. i am the combined effort of everybody i've ever known."

" It's creepy, but here we are, the pilgrims, the crackpots of our time, trying to establish our own alternate reality. To build a world out of rocks and chaos. What it's going to be, I don't know. Even after all that rushing around, where we've ended up is the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night. And maybe knowing isn't the point. Where we're standing right now, in the ruins in the dark, what we build could be anything."

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman:

 "Tonight, you pukes will sleep with your rifles. You will give your rifle a girl's name, because this is the only pu**y you people are going to get. Your days of finger-banging ol' Mary Jane Rottencrotch through her pretty pink panties are over! You're married to this piece. This weapon of iron and wood. And you will be faithful! "

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Holy Jesus! What is that? What the fork is that? WHAT IS THAT, PRIVATE PYLE?
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, a jelly doughnut, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: A jelly doughnut?
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, yes, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: How did it get here?
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, I took it from the mess hall, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Is chow allowed in the barracks, Private Pyle?
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, no, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Are you allowed to eat jelly doughnuts, Private Pyle?
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, no, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: And why not, Private Pyle?
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, because I'm too heavy, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Because you are a disgusting fat body, Private Pyle!
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, yes, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Then why did you try to sneak a jelly doughnut in your foot locker, Private Pyle?
Private Gomer Pyle: Sir, because I was hungry, sir!
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Because you were hungry...
[turns and addresses rest of platoon]
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Private Pyle has dishonored himself and dishonored his platoon. I have tried to help Private Pyle. I have failed. I have failed because YOU have not given Private Pyle the proper motivation! So, from now on, whenever Private Pyle forks up, I will not punish him! I will punish all of YOU! And the way I see it, ladies, you owe me for ONE JELLY DOUGHNUT! NOW, GET DOWN ON YOUR FACES!
[rest of recruits get in front-leaning-rest position, Hartman turns to Pyle]
Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: Open your mouth!

Ohhh... Choke is one of my favorite books of all time.  I wish I could find the quote in there where he says something like:
"We live in a society where we can never be enough, know enough, have enough, see enough, do enough, learn enough.  fork enough."
It's one of the best character turning points I have ever read, and I know I didn't get the list correct, but it should be close enough to spark your memory.  Please post it for me.

i'll get back to you on the quote. i only own fight club, survivor and lullaby. Ive read all of them except for his new book of short stories. he is quit possibly the best author ive ever come accross. He has such a way with writting. His words make more sense than anything ive ever read. His writting style is so very different from everything. It really makes you think. And you actually have to take the time to think about what you're reading and then you can relate it to your own life. And if you read between the lines enough you can relate just about everything to your life.


“The answer is there is no answer.�


I think diary has got to be my favorite book. Have you read it?  And then invisable monster. They are making invisable monster into a movie soon. They were going to make survivor into a movie but after 911 they didnt think it would be a good idea to make a movie about hyjacking 747's.

I have read all of the books except the short stories.

I liked Choke the most, but the plot twist that 95% of the people reading Survivor will miss makes it one of the best storylines ever.  (Read chapter 1, read the last chapter, go back to chapter 1 and look at the list of items on the plane.)  If anyone has read this, and still doesn't know the twist, PM me and I will tell you.

yeah it actually made me mad.

   The end of Survivor isn't nearly so complicated. It's noted on page 7(8?) that a pile of valuable offerings has been left in the front of the passenger cabin. This pile includes a cassette recorder. Even before our hero starts to dictate his story -- during the few minutes he's supposed to be taking a piss -- he's actually in the bathroom dictating the last chapter into the cassette recorder. It's just ranting, nothing important plot-wise, and it can be interrupted at any point by the destruction of the plane. The minute the fourth engine flames out, he starts the cassette talking, then bails out, into Fertility's waiting arms (she's omniscient, you know). The rest of the book is just one machine whining and unsavory womaning to another machine. The crash will destroy the smaller recorder, but the surviving black box will make it appear that Tender is dead.

LMAO!  Best stuff right there.  Specially the last one.

Just letting you know you switched the second and last words.  "I came, I saw, I conquered"  Vidi is the past perfect tense of video (the present form of "to see").

I still can't seem to find who the hell wrote Gladio Stricto to mean a penis instead of "the drawn sword" as it is translated litterally.  (It was a very common phrase among battle scenes in Roman works.)
