More quotes by Charles Bukowski
More often than not Democratic Law works to the advantage of the few even though the many have voted this, of course, is because the few have told them how to vote.
Charles Bukowski
I'm going, she said. I love you but you're crazy, you're doomed.
Charles Bukowski
I think that the world should be full of cats and full of rain, that's all, just cats and rain, rain and cats, very nice, good night.
Charles Bukowski
There is only one place to write and that is alone at a typewriter. The writer who has to go into the streets is a writer who does not know the streets. . . when you leave your typewriter you leave your machine gun and the rats come pouring through.
Charles Bukowski
Love dries up, I thought as I walked back to the bathroom, even faster than sperm.
Charles Bukowski
Humanity, you never had it to begin with.
Charles Bukowski
I stopped looking for a Dream Girl, I just wanted one that wasn't a nightmare.
Charles Bukowski
I only want sweet peace and kindliness when I awaken -- but there's always some finger pointing, telling me some terrible deed I committed during the night. It seems I make a lot of mistakes and it seems that I am not allowed any.
Charles Bukowski
In my next life I want to be a cat. To sleep 20 hours a day and wait to be fed. To sit around licking my ass.
Charles Bukowski
magic persists without us no matter what we may do to try to spoil it
Charles Bukowski
you are yesterday's bouquet so sadly raided
Charles Bukowski
whiskey makes the heart beat faster but it sure doesn't help the mind and isn't it funny how you can ache just from the deadly drone of existence?
Charles Bukowski
The pest, in a sense, is a very superior being to us: he knows where to find us and how--usually in the bath or in sexual intercourse or asleep.
Charles Bukowski
I was only photographing in words the reality of it all.
Charles Bukowski
sometimes I hate you, she said.
Charles Bukowski
When you clean up a city, you destroy it.
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
Figuring the average poet starts at 16, I am 23.
Charles Bukowski
My dear, Find what you love and let it kill you. Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness. Let it kill you and let it devour your remains. For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover. ~ Falsely yours
Charles Bukowski
why don't we go back out there and tell them what happened? because nothing happened except that everybody has been driven insane and stupid by life. in this society there are only two things that count: don't be caught without money and don't get caught high on any kind of high. (Night Streets of Madness)
