Not that I'm crazy or anything. I just want some proof that death isn't the end. Even if crazed zombies grabbed me in some dark hall one night, even if they tore me apart, at least that wouldn't be the absolute end. There would be some comfort in that.

Better late then never aye? My favorite quote is:
In case there's a sniper outside, I open the blinds and stand my gross obese body in the window. Please, anybody with a rifle and a scope. Shoot me right here. Right in my big fat heart. Right in my little wiener.

Where’s the body?
Can it be traced to me?
Who the fuck did I kill?
What’s happening to me?
I didn’t do this shit, did I?

"put your hand on my bra... no on my back the bra on my back" lol

I was actually going to make a thread like this aswell, but my favorite would probably be when they talk about how everything is a set of patterns no free will. Not really a quote but still an important statement.

i like the quote in invisible monsters where it talks about how we are all products. i don't remember the exact quote but it is exactly how i feel. it seems that if you don't look a certain way or dress a certain way or act a certain way, you are labelled as weird and an outcast. for me, it is almost a chore to go shopping because i feel that i am just projecting the image that other people want to see. also, i hate how while we want to think that it is all good to be unique and individual, that is not what other people want to see. they all want to see the same thing.

it was something like -

You spend your whole life trying to solve problems and what happens when you solve them. You have nothing to live for just the grey scary emptiness of life.

Well along those lines anyway.

Here I sat, all downhearted,
Tried to shit, but only farted.

Also, I'm not sure if it's been mentioned, but: "If You're a Young Sexually Irresponsible Girl with a Drinking Problem, Get the Help You Need. Call - and then my number" was absolutely brilliant.

My parents bought me the first one to teach me about loving and caring for another living breathingcreature of God. Six hundred and forty fish later, the only thing I know is everything you love will die. The first time you meet that someone spacial, you can count on them one day being dead and in the ground"

"You ever wonder when God's coming back with alot of barbecue sauce?"
-Oyster in [I]Lullaby[/I] *Page 140.

Oyster is talking about how sailor's used to "seed islands with meat" by leaving two pigs or two cows on deserted islands after being rescued. He explained how the animals would overpopulate and eat every native thing on the island apart from the weeds and suggested that maybe this is why mankind is destroying the Earth in such a way. I just like the idea that God isn't an all seeing and all caring individual, but instead a careless jerk who wants to eat us. It would be interesting if people were worshipping someone who wanted to make us into burgers.

There's a lot of good quotes in this book, but I really liked this one..

“I hate that Fertility knows everything.

Fertility says, 'I know that you hate that I know everything'."

It made me laugh because before I turned the page, I was expecting her to say something like that.

"'Long term...we're all going to die. Then our bodies will rot. No surprise there. Short-term, we're going to live happily ever after.'
Really?
'Really,' she says. 'So don't sweat it'." (p. 50)

I also liked this quote where the caseworker says to Tender, "Suicide is contagious". (sorry I don't know what pages these are on) I thought that was a really good quote because it's so true and I don't think anyone mentioned it.

1. My job is most of the time I work for a housecleaning service. [B]Full-time drudge. Part-time god[/B] (It's even written on my T-shirt)) )

2. It’s not that I want to get married. I admire guys who can commit to a tatoo.

3. People used what they called a telephone because they hated being close together and they were too scared of being alone

4. When they didn’t talk their radios filled the gap with the copied voices of people singing the same songs over and over.

5. We’re all going overnight express delivery straight to Hell.

6. A cigarette, a sip, a question, breathing, drinking and asking – she demonstrates all the basic applications for the human mouth.

7. Churches in the outside world were just the local stores that sold people lies made up in the distant factories of giant religions.

8. All the studio apartments in my neighborhood are the same as a warm toilet seat. Somebody was there just a second before you and somebody will be there the minute you get up.

9. Nothing shows you the straight line from here to death like a list.

10. The landscaping is beautiful as long as you don’t look too close.

11. Ghoulie or ghosty or long-legged beastie, I just want my hand held.

12. To the World He Was a Loser But to Me He Was the World.

13. It hurts very much to die, but it hurts a lot more to keep living.

14. May You Die With all your work complete.

15. And if you never have sex, you never gain a sense of power. You never gain a voice or an identity of your own. Sex is the act that separates us from our parents. Children from adults. It’s by having sex that adolescents first rebel.

16. My Whole Life is For Sale At a Bookstore near you.

[QUOTE=Fallen;131108]The sky is blue and righteous in every direction. The sun is total and burning and just there in front. We're on top of the clouds and this is a beautiful day forever.

it has no personal or philisophical meaning, i just think its a really beautiful piece of writing, i cant explain why...[/QUOTE]

Finally! Someone else who finds that quote to be amazing. I love all his quotes because they are inspiring or powerful, but this quote has to be my favorite. Not because it means anything, but, like you said, because it is a beautiful piece of writing. It just makes me feel good deep down inside and is a perfect way to end the book.

By the way, you quoted it wrong, it's:

"And the sky is blue and righteous in every direction. The sun is total and burning and just right there. And today is a beautiful day. Testing, testing, one, two-"
