More quotes by Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
Do some living and get yourself a typewriter.
Charles Bukowski
I was a man who thrived on solitude without it I was like another man without food or water. Each day without solitude weakened me. I took no pride in my solitude but I was dependent on it. The darkness of the room was like sunlight to me.
Charles Bukowski
There is nothing that teaches you more than regrouping after failure and moving on.
Charles Bukowski
my greatest problem was stamps, envelopes, paper and wine, with the world on the edge of World War II.
Charles Bukowski
Courts are places where the ending is written first and all that precedes is simply vaudeville.
Charles Bukowski
it seemed to me that I had never met another person on earth as discouraging to my happiness as my father. and it appeared that I had the same effect upon him.
Charles Bukowski
I don't like jail, they got the wrong kind of bars in there.
Charles Bukowski
be it peace or happiness let it enfold you
