Favorite Drinking Bukowski Quotes

1. "I know how it is to live your life like a dream. To listen and watch, to wake up and try to understand what has already happened. You do not need a psychiatrist to do this.

That was what people did back then. They had no choice. they could not speak up. they could not run away. That was their fate."

I vomited a lot into the toilet. The next day, like a dumbass, I put the empty wine cooler and beer bottles in our outside garbage bin without trying to cover them. My dad caught me as a result, but hid it from my mom for unknown reasons."
