Quotable Quotes

Some people never go crazy, What truly horrible lives they must live

 

If you're losing your soul and you know it, then you've still got a soul left to lose

 

Sex is interesting, but it's not totally important. I mean it's not even as important (physically) as excretion. A man can go seventy years without a piece of ass, but he can die in a week without a bowel movement

 

Genius might be the ability to say a profound thing in a simple way.

 

There will always be something to ruin our lives, it all depends on what or which finds us first. We are always ripe and ready to be taken.

 

There is a time to stop reading, there is a time to STOP trying to WRITE, there is a time to kick the whole bloated sensation of ART out on its whore-ass.

 

I don't like jail, they got the wrong kind of bars in there

 

It's possible to love a human being if you don't know them too well.

 

To do a dull thing with style-now THAT'S what I call art.

 

That is what friendship means. Sharing the prejudice of experience.

 

We have wasted History like a bunch of drunks shooting dice back in the men's crapper of the local bar

 

      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.

 

 

Millionaires

you
no faces
no faces at all
laughing at nothing
let me tell you
i have drunk in skidrow rooms with imbecile winos
whose cause was better
whose eyes still held some light whose voices retained some sensibility
and when the morning came
we were sick but not ill
poor but not deluded
and we stretched in our beds
and rose in the late afternoon
like millionaires

-Charles Bukowski
