The Things You Own End Up Owning You

“The things you own end up owning you.” - Tyler Durden, Fight Club

The full quote from the book Fight Club (by Chuck Palahniuk) goes like this: “The things you own end up owning you. It's only after you lose everything that you're free to do anything.”

I occasionally experience manic states where I suddenly feel the need to shed all the crap that's accumulated around me. This week, I'm in one of those states, so if you're close by, you might find something useful out on the curb.

Drawing: Micron pens on Moleskine notepad.
