Chuck Klosterman Quotes
The only people who can ever put ideas into context are people who don't care; the unbiased and apathetic are usually the wisest dudes in the room.

He will describe paradoxical details and share deeply personal anecdotes, and it will all be autobiography; he will simply be explaining who he is by discussing something completely unrelated to his life.
