More quotes by Charles Bukowski
The Artist, an ancient sage had once said, is always sitting on the doorsteps of the rich.
Charles Bukowski
There are no good wars or bad wars. The only thing bad about a war is to lose it. All wars have been fought for a so-called good Cause on both sides. But only the victor's Cause becomes history's Noble Cause. It's not a matter of who is right or who is wrong, it's a matter of who has the best generals and the better army!
Charles Bukowski
That's the way it ends. The thin edge of the wedge.
Charles Bukowski
That's what friendship means: sharing the prejudice of experience.
Charles Bukowski
If I never see you again I will always carry you inside outside on my fingertips and at brain edges and in centers centers of what I am of what remains.
Charles Bukowski
An early taste of death is not necessarily a bad thing.
Charles Bukowski
Never get out of bed before noon.
Charles Bukowski
Sometimes there's luck, When there is you stock up on it and wait for the other times
Charles Bukowski
I write as a function. Without it I would fall ill and die. It's as much a part of one as the liver or intestine, and just about as glamorous.
Charles Bukowski
There's nothing else as pleasant as being unpleasant when there's nothing else to do, and there's usually nothing else to do.
Charles Bukowski
If you're losing your soul and you know it, then you've still got a soul left to lose.
Charles Bukowski
A spark can set a whole forest on fire. Just a spark. Save it.
Charles Bukowski
He had long nostril hairs, powerfully intimidating, like an unscheduled nightmare.
Charles Bukowski
Anybody can be a non-drunk. It takes a special talent to be a drunk. It takes endurance. Endurance is more important than truth.
Charles Bukowski
well, death says, as he walks by, I'm going to get you anyhow no matter what you've been: writer, cab-driver, pimp, butcher, sky-diver, I'm going to get you
Charles Bukowski
We're all going to die, all of us, what a circus! That alone should make us love each other but it doesn't. We are terrorized and flattened by trivialities, we are eaten up by nothing.
Charles Bukowski
You were destroyed by what you befriended.
Charles Bukowski
Never bring a lot of money to where a poor man lives. He can only lose what little he has. On the other hand it is mathematically possible that he might win whatever you bring with you. What you must do, with money and the poor, is never let them get too close to one another.
Charles Bukowski
Some men hope for revolution but when you revolt and set up your new government you find your new government is still the same old Papa, he has only put on a cardboard mask.
Charles Bukowski
The problem was you had to keep choosing between one evil or another, and no matter what you chose, they sliced a little bit more off you, until there was nothing left.
Charles Bukowski
