Martin Amis
“Standing in the nordic nook of the kitchen, I can gaze down at the flimsy-limbed joggers heading south towards the Park. It's nearly as bad as New York. Some of these gasping fatsos, these too-little-too-late artists, they look as though they're running up rising ground, climbing ground. My generation, we started all this. Before, everyone was presumably content to feel like death the whole time. Now they want to feel terrific for ever.”
Martin Amis, Money

Tanya Thompson
“When you nationalize the expenditures but privatize the revenue, everything is profit.”
Tanya Thompson, Red Russia

Douglas Coupland
“All families are psychotic. Everybody has basically the same family - it's just reconfigured slightly different from one to the next.”
Douglas Coupland, All Families are Psychotic

Chuck Palahniuk
“Worker bees can leave.
Even drones can fly away.
The Queen is their slave.”
Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club

Martin Amis
“Einstein's Monsters," by the way, refers to nuclear weapons, but also to ourselves. We are Einstein's monsters, not fully human, not for now.”
Martin Amis, Einstein's Monsters
