state of emptiness

Very classic, I dare not fast forward a second, for fear of missing a classic.
Choose life, choose work, choose career, choose family. Pick a fucking big TV. Choose from washing machines, cars, laser players, electric can openers. Choose healthy, low-calorie, low-sugar. Choose a fixed rate home loan. Choose a starting point, choose a friend, choose a tracksuit and a suitcase. Choose a fucking three-piece suit...choose DIY and on a Sunday morning, you can't figure out who the fuck you are. Choose to watch boring shows on the couch and stuff junk food in your mouth. Choose to rot to death, leaving only the selfish kid made from your sperm to replace you. Choose your future, your life. But why should I do this? I choose not to live, I choose something else. reason? There is no reason. As long as there is heroin, why not?

    I found the youth I longed for most, but began to sink step by step.

    In fact, it is youth that I can't even think of.

Trainspotting quotes

  • Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: It wasn't just the baby that died that day. Something inside Sick Boy was lost and never returned. It seemed that he had no theory with which to explain a moment like this... nor did I. Our only response was to keep on going and 'fuck everything'. pile misery upon misery, heap it up on a spoon and dissolve it with a drop of bile, then squirt it into a stinking, puerile vein and do it all over again. Keep on going, getting up, going out, robbing, stealing, fucking people over. Propelling ourselves with longing towards the day that it would all go wrong, because no matter how much you stash, or how much you steal you never have enough. No matter how often you go out and rob and fuck people over, you always need to get up and do it all over again.

  • Spud: [singing] Did you think I would leave you crying, when there's room on my horse for two? Climb up here, Tommy and don't be dying, I can go just as fast with two. When we grow up we'll both be soldiers And our horses will not be toys, and I wonder if we'll remember when we were two little boys.
