The best Fight Club movie quotes take viewers inside the head of the film's protagonist as he develops a fight club to escape the boredom of his average life. The drama film, which was directed by David Fincher, was adapted into a screenplay by Jim Uhls from the novel of the same name by Chuck Palahniuk. Opening to mixed reviews and some controversial chatter on October 15, 1999, Fight Club went on to become a beloved cult classic that is still frequently quoted to this day.
In Fight Club, the narrator (Edward Norton) explains his white collar life working for a major automotive company. Unable to treat his insomnia, he begins visiting support groups for various ailments where he meets lady friend Marla (Helena Bonham Carter) and finally finds an emotional release to allow him to sleep. During a flight, the narrator meets Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt) and in a moment of need, asks to stay at Tyler's home, something Tyler agrees to.
The narrator soon learns that Tyler lives an extraordinary life, including operating a fight club where grown men attend to fist fight with one another. He also learns that Tyler is operating an anti-corporate organization, Project Mayhem, which seeks to destroy companies that force us to define ourselves by materialistic achievements. This combination of Marla, and her various chemical additives, and Tyler's army of Project Mayhem soldiers (including Meat Loaf and Jared Leto) proves to be quite the eye-opening experience that changes them all, and the world, forever.
