More quotes by Charles Bukowski
I hope that death contains less than this.
Charles Bukowski
It's possible to love a human being if you don't know them too well.
Charles Bukowski
Some people like what you do, some people hate what you do, but most people simply don't give a damn.
Charles Bukowski
we had such tremendous fun and much agony together for some years
Charles Bukowski
Almost everybody is born a genius and buried an idiot.
Charles Bukowski
A man needed somebody. There wasn't anybody around, so you had to make up somebody, make him up to be like a man should be. It wasn't make-believe or cheating. The other way was make-believe and cheating: living your life without a man like him around.
Charles Bukowski
I had no feeling for the things so many others needed.
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
there are policemen in the street and angels in the clouds
Charles Bukowski
Find what you love and let it kill you. For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover.
Charles Bukowski
That's what friendship means: sharing the prejudice of experience.
Charles Bukowski
You just rebel against everything. How are you going to survive? I don't know. I'm already tired.
Charles Bukowski
Show me a man who lives alone and has a perpetually clean kitchen, and 8 times out of 9 I'll show you a man with detestable spiritual qualities.
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
The writer has no responsibility other than to jack off in bed alone and write a good page.
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
With me, my main vision for life was to avoid as many people as possible. The less people I saw the better I felt.
Charles Bukowski
we know God is dead, they've told us, but listening to you I wasn't sure.
Charles Bukowski
and love was lightning and remembrance
Charles Bukowski
purple does something strange to me
