Bret Easton Ellis
“All it comes down to is this: I feel like shit but look great.”
Bret Easton Ellis, American Psycho

Bill Callahan
“I was trained to turn loneliness into laziness.”
Bill Callahan, Letters to Emma Bowlcut

“I swing down viciously but narrowly miss. It goes for another dive and I take my shot whacking it head-on in the face. The impact of my swing rattles through the bones in my arm as the shockwave from the strike explodes in a brilliant flash of coppery shimmers, chromatic sparks, and fiery swirls.”
Yann Tanguay, Passings and the Eggplant

Bill Callahan
“At the heel end of the day, I need my glass of wine. Christmas lights for the brain.”
Bill Callahan, Letters to Emma Bowlcut

“Ambition: The willingness to continually question and assess one’s acceptance and contentment with their place in life; conjunct with the willingness to take action should a resolvable discrepancy between one’s values and one’s current standing, present itself.

By extension, an ambitious person is someone who has to the best of their abilities thoughtfully defined their values and continues on to do whatever is reasonably possible to fully embrace who they are in life.”
Yann Tanguay
