Bukowski on Pain

“Pain is strange. A cat killing a bird, a car accident, a fire….Pain arrives, BANG, and there it is, it sits on you. It’s real. And to anybody watching, you look foolish. Like you’ve suddenly become an idiot. There’s no cure for it unless you know somebody who understands how you feel, and knows how to help.” ~ Charles Bukowski

 

Bukowski

“I don’t care what they say after I’m dead. In fact, I hardly care what they say while I’m alive. I only write to help myself get through the weeks and the months and the years.” ~ Charles Bukowski

“Take a writer away from his typewriter and all you have left is the sickness that started him writing in the first place”
