I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who have ever lived.
An entire generation pumping gas and waiting tables; or they're slaves with white collars.
Advertisements have them chasing cars and clothes, working jobs they hate so they can buy shit they don't need.
We are the middle children of history, with no purpose or place.
We have no great war, or great depression.
The great war is a spiritual war.
The great depression is our lives.
We were raised by television to believe that we'd be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars.
But we won't.
And we're learning that fact.
And we're very, very pissed-off.
该死的
整整一代人都在当加油工、招待员或者白领奴隶
广告诱惑我们追逐汽车和时尚
于是我们拼命工作
买那些没用的狗屎
我们是被历史遗忘的一代
没有目的、没有地位
没有世界大战、也没有经济大萧条
我们的战争就是心灵的战争
我们的生活就是经济大萧条
我们看着电视
相信有一天我们会成为百万富翁、影帝或是摇滚明星
但是
我们不会
这就是我们渐渐面对的现实
所以
我们真他妈的被激怒了
It's only after you've lost everything that you're free to do anything...
Without pain, without sacrifice, we would have nothing...
You are not special. You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake. You are the same decaying organic matter as everything else...
