Charles Bukowski
“People are strange: They are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.”
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
“being alone never felt right. sometimes it felt good, but it never felt right.”
Charles Bukowski, Women

Charles Bukowski
“Things get bad for all of us, almost continually, and what we do under the constant stress reveals who/what we are.”
Charles Bukowski, What Matters Most is How Well You Walk Through the Fire

Charles Bukowski
“We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.”
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
“There's nothing to mourn about death any more than there is to mourn about the growing of a flower. What is terrible is not death but the lives people live or don't live up until their death. They don't honor their own lives, they piss on their lives. They shit them away. Dumb fuckers. They concentrate too much on fucking, movies, money, family, fucking. Their minds are full of cotton. They swallow God without thinking, they swallow country without thinking. Soon they forget how to think, they let others think for them. Their brains are stuffed with cotton. They look ugly, they talk ugly, they walk ugly. Play them the great music of the centuries and they can't hear it. Most people's deaths are a sham. There's nothing left to die.”
Charles Bukowski
