Summary

This quote by American author and entrepreneur Chuck Palahniuk critiques the influence of advertising on our lifestyles. Palahniuk argues that advertising manipulates us into constantly pursuing material possessions, such as cars and clothes, even if it means working jobs that bring us no satisfaction. He suggests that these possessions are ultimately unnecessary and fail to bring us genuine happiness or fulfillment. This quote calls attention to the consumerist culture perpetuated by advertising and encourages individuals to reassess their priorities and seek personal fulfillment rather than pursuing superficial desires.

Every month as it wanes bring you nearer to something dreadful. Time is jealous of you, and wars against your lilies and your roses.
