Fight Club Mortality Quotes

How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from Fight Club.

Quote #1

NARRATOR: This is your life, and it's ending one minute at a time.

This is our narrator's (and Fight Club's) way of reminding us to go out and do something with our lives because we only have a limited amount of time.

Quote #2

NARRATOR: Every evening I died, and every evening I was born again. Resurrected.

Our narrator isn't talking about a literal death here, but a figurative one through sleep. Of course, once we learn that our narrator and Tyler are the same person, we can see this as meaning that Tyler "kills" our narrator each night, and he is reborn a new person. The Tyler side of his personality is actually trying to kill off this other side.

Quote #3

CHLOE: I no longer have any fear of death.

That's Chloe talking in support group. She achieved this lack of fear through going to these support groups, but our narrator needs a different kind of group to achieve the same catharsis: fight club.
