Death Quote by Chuck Palahniuk — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“The amazing miracle of death, when one second you're walking and talking, and the next second you're an object.”

“A girl calls and asks, "Does it hurt very much to die?”

“Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken!”

“It's exhausting, the energy it takes to unknow a truth.”

“Put a gun to my head and paint the wall with my brains.”

“Because supposedly those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it.”

“The dead can survive as part of the lives of those that still live.”

“Because there was only one thing worse than dying. And that was knowing you were going to die. And where. And how. (“Death Ship”)”

“There's still a thousand places I haven't gone to die.”

“No individual death among human beings is important. Someone who dies leaves his work behind and that does not entirely die. It never entirely dies as long as humanity exists.”

“When the weather's nice, my parents go out quite frequently and stick a bunch of flowers on old Allie's grave. I went with them a couple of times, but I cut it out. In the first place, I don't enjoy seeing him in that crazy cemetery. Surrounded by dead guys and tombstones and all. It wasn't too bad when the sun was out, but twice—twice—we were there when it started to rain. It was awful. It rained on his lousy tombstone, and it rained on the grass on his stomach. It rained all over the place. All the visitors that were visiting the cemetery started running like hell over to their cars. That's what nearly drove me crazy. All the visitors could get in their cars and turn on their radios and all and then go someplace nice for dinner—everybody except Allie. I couldn't stand it. I know it's only his body and all that's in the cemetery, and his soul's in Heaven and all that crap, but I couldn't stand it anyway. I just wished he wasn't there.”
