The things you own end up owning you

Oh, boy.

This quote from Tyler Durden hits hard, especially in the age of consumerism and the shackles of credit.

He points out how people rush to own material items, but these items end up owning people instead.

So, who owns who here?

As he says, Youre not your job.

Its supposed to be an empty and lonely place of despair and sorrow the lowest of the lows.

However, Tyler Durden posits an interesting alternative through this quote.

Maybe rock bottom should be viewed through a different lens.

Instead of the hopeless nothingness, its a blank canvas.

Its the opportunity to write the story that you want to tell to the world.

In fact, whatisan adult in the first place?

Stop trying to control everything and just let go.

From an early age, many people are taught about the importance of preparedness and following a path.

Tyler Durden suggests letting go to be the solution to a more carefree lifestyle and glowing skin, presumably.

Is Tyler my bad dream?

Or am I Tylers?

The revelation that Tyler Durden exists only in the Narrators head is a pivotal moment inFight Club.

However, theres no dispute that Tylers methods are dangerous and illegal.
