Fight Club

My favorite scene from that movie (OK I would say this about any scene from this movie) is when Ed Norton is fading in and out of consciousness as Tyler Durden tell him about the world he envisions:

"In the world I see - you are stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center. You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life. You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Tower. And when you look down, you'll see tiny figures pounding corn, laying strips of venison on the empty car pool lane of some abandoned superhighway."

Every time I hear this line, I can't help but wonder if this world would be a better place.
away from all the bullshit of everyday life.

Comforts forgotten on the swirling winds of some winter, unhindered by central heating
the keeping of the beating of ones heart,
the only art that keeps the attention of men and women, is that of the aforementioned
don't forget where you came from...
