“I never enjoy anything. I鈥檓 always waiting for whatever鈥檚 next. I think everyone鈥檚 like that..living life in fast-forward. Never stopping to enjoy the moment. Too busy trying to rush through everything so we can get on with what we鈥檙e really supposed to be doing with our lives. I get these flashes of clarity, brilliant clarity, where for a second I stop and I think 鈥淲ait, this is it. This is my life. I better slow down and enjoy it because one day we鈥檙e all gonna end up in the ground and that鈥檒l be it. We鈥檒l be gone.”

“For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.”
― Charles Bukowski

“I stopped in the middle of that building and I saw 鈥� the sky. I saw the things that I love in this world. The work and the food and time time to sit and smoke. And I looked at the pen and said to myself, what the hell am I grabbing this for? Why am I trying to become what I don't want to be? What am I doing in an office, making a contemptuous, begging fool of myself, when all I want is out there, waiting for me the minute I say I know who I am! Why can't I say that, Willy?”
