“It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything.”
“This is your life and its ending one moment at a time.”
“You are not special. You're not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else. We're all part of the same compost heap. We're all singing, all dancing crap of the world.”
“The things you used to own, now they own you.”
“You buy furniture. You tell yourself, this is the last sofa I will ever need in my life. Buy the sofa, then for a couple years you're satisfied that no matter what goes wrong, at least you've got your sofa issue handled. Then the right set of dishes. Then the perfect bed. The drapes. The rug. Then you're trapped in your lovely nest, and the things you used to own, now they own you.”
“Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need.”
The quotes are endless really. just read the book!
