More quotes by Charles Bukowski
In a capitalistic society the losers slaved for the winners and you have to have more losers than winners.
Charles Bukowski
Sometimes there's luck, When there is you stock up on it and wait for the other times
Charles Bukowski
But then if you lied to a man about his talent just because he was sitting across from you, that was the most unforgivable lie of them all, because that was telling him to go on, to continue which was the worst way for a man without real talent to waste his life, finally. But many people did just that, friends and relatives mostly.
Charles Bukowski
Sometimes I get too exhausted to even feel bad
Charles Bukowski
Before you kill something make sure you have something better to replace it with.

love be damned now as love was damned when it first arrived.
Charles Bukowski
The apartment was built at the edge of a high cliff so that when you looked out the back window it seemed as if you were twelve floors up instead of four. It was very much like living on the edge of the world - a last resting place before the final big drop.
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
Too often the people complain that they have done nothing with their lives and then they wait for somebody to tell them that this isn't so.
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
Love is a form of prejudice. You love what you need, you love what makes you feel good, you love what is convenient. How can you say you love one person when there are ten thousand people in the world that you would love more if you ever met them? But you'll never meet them.
Charles Bukowski
Find what you love and let it kill you.
Charles Bukowski
Lighting new cigarettes, pouring more drinks. It has been a beautiful fight. Still is.
Charles Bukowski
When you drank the world was still out there, but for the moment it didn’t have you by the throat.
Charles Bukowski
Alcohol is probably one of the greatest things to arrive upon the earth - alongside of me.
Charles Bukowski
