Tyler Durden

Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who ve ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don t need. We re the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War s a spiritual our Great Depression is our lives. We ve all been raised on television to believe that one day we d all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won t. And we re slowly learning that fact. And we re very, very pissed off.
