Bret Easton Ellis citations célèbres

“Le type sort alors du cabinet de toilette et me dit aussitôt : « Non, pas de musique. Je veux que tu entendes tout. Absolument tout.» Il ferme la radio. Je demande au type si je peux utiliser les toilettes. Julian retire son caleçon. Le type sourit d'un air mystérieux, me dit oui et je vais au cabinet de toilette et je verrouille la porte, ouvre les deux robinets du lavabo et tire plusieurs fois la chasse d'eau en essayant de vomir, mais j'y arrive pas. Je m'essuie la bouche et retourne dans la chambre. Le soleil est descendu, les ombres envahissent les murs, Julian essaie de sourire. Le type lui rend son sourire, les ombres s'étendent sur son visage.”

Bret Easton Ellis livre Moins que zéro

Citations de l'auteur, Moins que zéro, 1985

“Quesse tu comptes faire? T'as nulle part où aller. Tu veux raconter ton histoire à tout le monde? Que tu as tapiné pour rembourser une dette de drogue? Mon p'tit, t'es plus naïf que j'croyais. Allez, t'en fais donc pas baby, ça va aller mieux.”

Bret Easton Ellis livre Moins que zéro

Citations de l'auteur, Moins que zéro, 1985

“Il pleut toujours. Et ce soir-là, après avoir reçu trois coups de fil silencieux, je casse un verre en le lançant contre le mur. Personne ne vient me demander ce qui se passe. Je m'allonge ensuite sur mon lit, prends vingt milligrammes de Valium pour accélérer la descente de coke, mais ça ne m'aide pas vraiment à dormir. J'éteins MTV, mets la radio, mais ne réussis pas à trouver KNAC, si bien que j'éteins la radio, regarde la Vallée, les néons et les tubes fluo sous le ciel pourpre nocturne et je reste là, nu, devant la fenêtre, à regarder les nuages défiler, puis je m'allonge sur mon lit et j'essaie de me rappeler depuis combien de temps je suis de retour à la maison et puis je me lève, arpente ma chambre, allume une autre cigarette en attendant la sonnerie du téléphone. Voila à quoi ressemblent les nuits quand il pleut.”

Bret Easton Ellis livre Moins que zéro

Citations de l'auteur, Moins que zéro, 1985

“Et la mort passe par vagues successives.
Les gens sont retournés, pliés en deux à l'envers, arrachés de leurs sièges, comme les dents sont arrachées des crânes, les gens sont aveuglés, leurs corps projetés dans l'atmosphère contre le plafond et puis chassés à l'arrière de l'avion, s'écrasant contre les autres passagers qui hurlent, tandis que des morceaux d'aluminium ne cessent de se détacher du fuselage, de tournoyer dans l'avion bondé et de découper des membres, et le sang se met à tourbilloner partout, les gens en sont trempés, le crachent par la bouche, clignent les paupières pour le chasser de leurs yeux, et puis un énorme pan de métal vole à travers la cabine et scalpe une rangée entière de passagers, leur découpant le sommet du crâne, tandis qu'un autre éclat traverse le visage d'une jeune femme, lui coupant la tête en deux mais sans la tuer vraiment.”

Bret Easton Ellis livre Glamorama

Porshe 911. Je pense au shar-pei. J'aimerais posséder un shar-pei. Je pense que j'ai vingt-six ans. L'année prochaine, j'aurai vingt-sept ans. Un valium. Je voudrais un valium.

“Specks—specks all over the third panel, see?—no, that one—the second one up from the floor and I wanted to point this out to someone yesterday but a photo shoot intervened and Yaki Nakamari or whatever the hell the designer's name is—a master craftsman not—mistook me for someone else so I couldn't register the complaint, but, gentlemen—and ladies—there they are: specks, annoying, tiny specks, and they don't look accidental but like they were somehow done by a machine—so I don't want a lot of description, just the story, streamlined, no frills, the lowdown: who, what, where, when and don't leave out why, though I'm getting the distinct impression by the looks on your sorry faces that why won't get answered—now, come on, goddamnit, what's the story?”

“…and it's a story that might bore you but you don't have to listen, she told me, because she always knew it was going to be like that, and it was, she thinks, her first year, or actually weekend, really a Friday, in September, at Camden, and this was three or four years ago, and she got so drunk that she ended up in bed, lost her virginity (late, she was eighteen) in Lorna Slavin's room, because she was a Freshman and had a roommate and Lorna was, she remembers, a Senior or Junior and usually somestimes at her boyfriend's place off-campus, to who she thought was a Sophomore Ceramics major but who was actually either some guy from N. Y. U., a film student, and up in New Hampshire just for The Dressed to Get Screwed party, or a townie.”
