“…and whoever you choose to be, was part of your destiny.”

There is no real ‘choice’ in the idea of destiny: destiny is inevitable and therefore whatever happens has to happen and we don’t get a say in it.

The only real destiny is death. So who you are while living is irrelevant, and everything that happens along the way is just the product of the choices you make. You could become a hundred different things in your life, do everything, see everything, but those things are not destinies. In the end, it will result the same way: the breaking down of your body and the eventual ceasing of your heart to beat. Death is inevitable and always imminent.

If I’m going to be some kind of role model, then I want to be the role model who says THERE ARE NO FUCKING ROLE MODELS. PUNKS DO NOT HAVE HEROES. YOUR HERO SHOULD BE SOMEONE YOU REALLY KNOW—YOUR BEST FRIEND OR YOUR SISTER. YOUR HERO SHOULD BE YOURSELF.

Every great man that I have known has had a certain time and place in their life that they use as a reference point; a time when things worked as they were supposed to and great things were accomplished

Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who’ve ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. 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.

This are some of the quotes I most like on fight club, in a Tyler Durden image I have grabbed on DeviantART. This is serving as my desktop background image.
