Doomed (Damned #2)

by Chuck Palahniuk

Good and evil have always existed. They always will. It’s only our stories about them that ever change.

“Religions exist because people would rather have a wrong answer than no answer at all.”

“Boys only tease the girls they like.” In response, I’d quoted Oscar Wilde, saying, “Yet each man kills the thing he loves.”

The only thing that makes the present palatable is the fact that the past was, at times, torture.

How could you ever bring yourself to love so deeply if you truly knew how brief a lifetime can be?
