“As young people we want something to slow us down and keep us trapped in one place long enough to look below the surface of the world. That disaster is a car crash or a war. To make us sit still.

That disaster stops us from living the life we'd planned as children - a life of constant dashing around.”
― Chuck Palahniuk, Haunted
