“there is a loneliness in this world so great that you can see it in the slow movement of the hands of a clock”

Charles Bukowski

each man’s hell

November 26, 2009

“each man’s hell is in a different
place: mine is just up and
behind
my ruined
face.”

Charles Bukowski

“great writers are indecent people
they live unfairly
saving the best part for paper.

good human beings save the world
so that bastards like me can keep creating art,
become immortal.
if you read this after I am dead
it means I made it.”

Charles Bukowski

Thought for the day

“Sometimes you just have to pee in the sink.”

Charles Bukowski

Thoughts for the day

May 25, 2009

Yesterday was thoughtless, so today will be thoughtful with these two gems from Charles Bukowski:

“Boring damned people. All over the earth. Propagating more boring damned people. What a horror show. The earth swarmed with them.”

“The difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is that in a democracy you vote first and take orders later; in a dictatorship you don’t have to waste your time voting”

Charles Bukowski

“the writing of some
men
is like a vast bridge
that carries you
over
the many things
that claw and tear.”

Charles Bukowski
