Quote by Bret Easton Ellis

“Things changing, failing apart, fading, another year, a few more moves, a hard person who doesn't give a fuck, a boredom so monumental it humbles, arrangements so fleeting made by people you don't even know that it requires you to lose any sense of reality you might have once acquired, expectations so unreasonable you become superstitious about ever matching them.”

"I don't know why Miss Kildaire would sit on a shelf, but that's what Morgan said." "I'm guessing there's more." "And then Morgan said that his mother said that Miss Kildaire was too fat to get a man." What a load of horseshit, Zach thought. Morgan's mother was probably some shriveled-up jealous twit. "I see." "And then Morgan said she was a cripple." Zach had a sudden urge to punch out the little rat himself.”
