The wit and wisdom of Charles Bukowski

“If you don’t gamble, you’ll never win.”

“No pain means the end of feeling; each of our joys is a bargain with the devil.”

“The difference between Art and Life is that Art is more bearable.”

“The well-balanced individual is insane.”

“Almost everybody is born a genius and buried an idiot.”

“Sexual intercourse is kicking death in the ass while singing.”

“When men rule governments, men won’t need governments; until then we are screwed.”

“If you want to know who your friends are, get yourself a jail sentence.”

“Hospitals are where they attempt to kill you without explaining why.”

“Before a metropolitan daily exposes an evil, it takes its own pulse.”
