Charles BukowskiThat's the problem with drinking, I thought, as I poured myself a drink. If something bad happens you drink in an attempt to forget; if something good happens you drink in order to celebrate; and if nothing happens you drink to make something happen.
Charles BukowskiI am too sick to lay down the sidewalks frighten me the whole damned city frightens me, what I will become what I have become frightens me.
Charles Bukowskiwhy don't we go back out there and tell them what happened? because nothing happened except that everybody has been driven insane and stupid by life. in this society there are only two things that count: don't be caught without money and don't get caught high on any kind of high.
