Chuck quote

[Furnace]

What good is intellect if it leaves us immobile and frozen in indecision? At some point, despite all the other options, you have to commit yourself to a path. Being flexible if fine, it's maybe the greatest talent you can have, but in order to define yourself, you need to pursue your passion. There will always be good reasons not to do something, or to do something else, the world is full of women more beautiful than your wife, you can never choose the best car, there's always a cheaper air fare. What's most important is that you choose and get on with your life.
- Chuck Palahniuk

AMEN darling!!!!!! I feel like giving this one a standing ovation. These are words that I can truly get behind, and wish I had committed to memory long ago. But I learned this lesson the hard way, and it will never leave my side again.

I got the quote from www.chuckpalahniuk.net. It's from a Pop Matters magazine interview.
His new book, Lullaby, should be released in October 2002.

Thankyou so much! Indecision ahs been the bane of my life, and I'm only just learning that sometimes you have to say fuck it and plunge in head first... not only once (like I have done) but again and again...
That's going on my cubicle wall
