Divide a second into sixty different parts. That's how long the erection is. Towering four stories tall over the popcorn auditorium, slippery red and terrible, and no one sees it. 41 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: What Tyler had created was the shadow of a giant hand. Only now the fingers were Nosferatu-long and the thumb was too short, but he said how at exactly four-thirty the hand was perfect. The giant shadow hand was perfect for one minute, and for one perfect minute Tyler had sat in the palm of a perfection he'd created himself. 42 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: This was freedom.

Look up into the stars and you're gone. 43 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: Think about the animals used in product testing.

You have to look for the white dots at the top, right-hand corner of the screen. This is the warning. Watch the movie, and you'll see two dots at the end of the reel. 45 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: Sometimes you do something, and you get screwed. sometimes it's the things you don't do, and you get screwed. 46 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: Nothing is static. Even the Mona Lisa is falling apart. Since fight club, I can wiggle half the teeth in my jaw. Maybe self-improvement isn't the answer. Maybe self-destruction is the answer. 47 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: I've met god across his long walnut desk with his diplomas hanging on the wall behind him, and god asks me, "Why?" Why did I cause so much pain? Didn't I realize that each of us is a sacred, unique snowflake of special unique specialness? Can't I see that we're all manifestations of love? I look at god behind his desk, taking notes on a pad, but god's got this all wrong. We are not special. We are not crap or trash either. We just are. We just are, and what happens just happens. And god says, "No, that's not right." Yeah. Well. Whatever. You can't teach god anything. 48 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: If a new car built by my company leaves Chicago traveling west at 60 miles per hour, and the rear differential locks up, and the car crashes and burns with everyone trapped inside, does my company initiate a recall? You take the population of vehicles in the field - A, and multiply it by the probable rate of failure - B, then multiply the result by the average cost of an out-of-court settlement - C. A times B times C equals X. This is what it will cost if we don't initiate a recall. If X is greater than the cost of a recall, we recall the cars and no one gets hurt. If X is less than the cost of a recall, then we don't recall. 49 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: I just don't want to die without a few scars, I say.

I am Joe's Raging Bile Duct. I am Joe's Grinding Teeth. I am Joe's Inflamed Flaring Nostrils. I am Joe's White Knuckles. I am Joe's Enraged, Inflamed Sense of Rejection. I am Joe's Clenching Bowels. 51 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: Home was a condominium on the fifteenth floor of a high-rise, a sort of filing cabinet for widows and young professionals. The marketing brochure promised a foot of concrete floor, ceiling, and wall between between me and any adjacent stereo or turn-up television. a foot of concrete was important when your next-door neighbour lets the battery on her hearing aid go and has to watch her game shows at full blast. Or when a volcanic blast of burning gas and debris that used to be your living-room set and personal effects blows out your floor to ceiling windows and sails down flaming to leave just your condo, only yours, a gutted charred concrete hole in the cliffside of the building. 52 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: After a night at fight club, everything in the real world gets the volumn turned down. Nothing can piss you off, your word is law, and if other people break the law or question you, even that doesn't piss you off. 53 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: Eyes closed, we imagined our pain as a ball of white healing light floating around our feet and rising to our knees, our waist, our chest. Our chakras opening. The heart chakra. The head chakra. Chloe talked us into caves where we meet our power animal. Mine was a penguin. 54 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: The security asked my name and address and phone number, and then he asked me what was the difference between a condom and a cockpit.

Only now the fingers were Nosferatu-long and the thumb was too short, but he said how at exactly four-thirty the hand was perfect. The giant shadow hand was perfect for one minute, and for one perfect minute Tyler had sat in the palm of a perfection he'd created himself. One minute was enough, Tyler said, a person had to work hard for it, but a minute of perfection was worth the effort. A moment was the most you could ever expect from perfection. 56 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: I used to work in a funeral home to feel good about myself, just the fact that I was breathing. 57 Narrator Other Quotes Quotes Narrator Narrator: Is Tyler my bad dream?
