Charles Bukowski
“Poetry is what happens when nothing else can.”
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
“Style is the answer to everything.
A fresh way to approach a dull or dangerous thing
To do a dull thing with style is preferable to doing a dangerous thing without it
To do a dangerous thing with style is what I call art

Bullfighting can be an art
Boxing can be an art
Loving can be an art
Opening a can of sardines can be an art

Not many have style
Not many can keep style
I have seen dogs with more style than men,
although not many dogs have style.
Cats have it with abundance.

When Hemingway put his brains to the wall with a shotgun,
that was style.
Or sometimes people give you style
Joan of Arc had style
John the Baptist
Jesus
Socrates
Caesar
García Lorca.

I have met men in jail with style.
I have met more men in jail with style than men out of jail.
Style is the difference, a way of doing, a way of being done.
Six herons standing quietly in a pool of water,
or you, naked, walking out of the bathroom without seeing me.”
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
“Too often the people complain that they have done nothing with their
lives and then they wait for somebody to tell them that this isn't so.”
Charles Bukowski, What Matters Most is How Well You Walk Through the Fire

Charles Bukowski
“Lighting new cigarettes,
pouring more
drinks.

It has been a beautiful
fight.

Still
is.”
Charles Bukowski, You Get So Alone at Times That it Just Makes Sense

Simone de Beauvoir
“What would Prince Charming have for occupation if he had not to awaken the Sleeping beauty?”
Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex
