More quotes by Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
We do not abandon ship. I say, as corny as it may sound, through the strength and spirit and fire and dare and gamble of a few men in a few ways we can save the carcass of humanity from drowning. No light goes out until it goes out. Let's fight as men, not rats. Period. No further addition.
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
I wasn’t lonely. I experienced no self-pity. I was just caught up in a life in which I could find no meaning.
Charles Bukowski
That's how it is with books, isn't it: They're not in a hurry. They'll wait for you till you're ready. People empty me. I have to go away to refill.
Charles Bukowski
I have loved you woman as surely as I have named you rust and sand and nylon.
Charles Bukowski
It's better to do a dull thing with style than a dangerous thing without it.
Charles Bukowski
I will put on my shoes and shirt and get out of here - it'll be better for all of us.
Charles Bukowski
So, that’s what they wanted: lies. Beautiful lies. That’s what they needed. People were fools. It was going to be easy for me.
Charles Bukowski
Finally there is nothing here for death to take away.
Charles Bukowski
The wisest thing to do if you’re living in hell is to make yourself comfortable.
Charles Bukowski
My flesh looked like it wasn't trying. It looked like it hated being part of me.
Charles Bukowski
