  • We are Born like this Into this Into these carefully mad wars Into the sight of broken factory windows of emptiness Into bars where people no longer speak to each other Into fist fights that end as shootings and knifings Born into this Into hospitals which are so expensive that it’s cheaper to die Into lawyers who charge so much it’s cheaper to plead guilty Into a country where the jails are full and the madhouses closed Into a place where the masses elevate fools into rich heroes

    Charles Bukowski (2012). “The Pleasures of the Damned: Selected Poems 1951-1993”, p.475, Canongate Books
  • There's nothing to mourn about death any more than there is to mourn about the growing of a flower. What is terrible is not death but the lives people live or don't live up until their death. They don't honor their own lives ... their minds are full of cotton. They swallow God without thinking, they swallow country without thinking. Soon they forget how to think, they let others think for them.... Most people's deaths are a sham. There's nothing left to die.

    "The Captain is Out to Lunch and the Sailors have taken over the Ship". Book by Charles Bukowski, 1998.
  • They swallow God without thinking, they swallow country without thinking. Soon they forget how to think, they let others think for them.

    Charles Bukowski (2009). “The Captain is Out to Lunch”, p.13, Harper Collins
