Charles Bukowski
“Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead.”
Charles Bukowski

George Bernard Shaw
“Liquor is the chloroform which enables the poor man to endure the painful operation of living.”
George Bernard Shaw

Charles Bukowski
“Drinking is an emotional thing. It joggles you out of the standardism of everyday life, out of everything being the same. It yanks you out of your body and your mind and throws you against the wall. I have the feeling that drinking is a form of suicide where you're allowed to return to life and begin all over the next day. It's like killing yourself, and then you're reborn. I guess I've lived about ten or fifteen thousand lives now.”
Charles Bukowski
