Chuck Palahniuk Quote
No, we love war.War. Starvation. Plague. They fast-track us to enlightenment.It's the mark of a very, very young soul, Mr. Whittier used to say, to try and fix the world. To try and save anyone from their ration of misery.We have always loved war. We are born knowing that war is why we're here. And we love disease. Cancer. We love earthquakes. In this amusement-park fun house we call the planet earth, Mr. Whittier says we adore forest fires. Oil spills. Serial killers.
