Quote #7

TYLER: Who is this?
NARRATOR: Tyler?

Listen to the dialog here, and you can imagine that Edward Norton is saying "Tyler" without a question mark, answering the question not with a question, but with a truthful answer. "Who is this?" "Tyler."

Quote #8

Sometimes Tyler spoke for me.

This reminds us of "I know this because knows this." Tyler speaks for him because he's telling him what to do…from inside his head. The scene at the hospital is like something from The Sixth Sense. No one actually looks at or responds to Tyler. And no, you're not seeing dead people.

Quote #9

NARRATOR: That was not a bunch of stuff that got destroyed. It was me!

Our narrator's identity was composed of IKEA furniture instead of accomplishments, hopes, dreams, failures, and fears. When his apartment blew up, his entire identity blew up with it, and he had to rebuild it from the ground up.
