More quotes by Charles Bukowski
I never met another man I'd rather be. And even if that's a delusion, it's a lucky one.
Charles Bukowski
Human relationships are strange. I mean, you are with one person a while, eating and sleeping and living with them, loving them, talking to them, going places together, and then it stops.
Charles Bukowski
it's good to have things done with when they don't work it's also good not to hate or even forget the person you've failed with.
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
When a writer is swayed with his fame and his fortune, you can float him down the river with the turds.
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
Well, the rain had stopped but the pain was still there.
Charles Bukowski
Before you kill something make sure you have something better to replace it with.
Charles Bukowski
Love is all right for those who can handle the psychic overload. It's like trying to carry a full garbage can on your back over a rushing river of piss.
Charles Bukowski
Our disappointment sits between us.
Charles Bukowski
Boring damned people. All over the earth. Propagating more boring damned people. What a horror show. The earth swarmed with them.
Charles Bukowski
Alcohol is probably one of the greatest things to arrive upon the earth - alongside of me.
Charles Bukowski
I never write in the daytime. It's like running through the shopping mall with your clothes off. Everybody can see you. At night ... that's when you pull the tricks ... magic.
Charles Bukowski
my mother, poor fish, wanting to be happy, beaten two or three times a week, telling me to be happy: Henry, smile! why don't you ever smile? and then she would smile, to show me how, and it was the saddest smile I ever saw
