What is this?

I'm a huge fan of Bret Easton Ellis and American Psycho. Both the book and movie adaptiations are amazing stories about everybody's favorite serial killer. I've collected some of my favorite quotes from Patrick Bateman and added them above. Bateman is such an insane character, but Ellis creates him to be so believable. Even though it's 2013, I can picture Bateman walking around Manhattan complaining about Twitter, getting mad at hipsters and using an iPhone to book a res at Dorsia. Hopefully this collection of Patrick Bateman quotes helps keep his character alive over the years.
