Find what you love and let it kill you.

"Did Charles Bukowski Really Say, 'Find What You Love and Let it Kill You?'" by Jef Rouner, www.houstonpress.com. July 16, 2013.

We're all going to die, all of us, what a circus! That alone should make us love each other but it doesn't. We are terrorized and flattened by trivialities, we are eaten up by nothing.

Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski (2009). “The Captain is Out to Lunch”, p.10, Harper Collins

It's possible to love a human being if you don't know them too well.

Love is kind of like when you see a fog in the morning, when you wake up before the sun comes out. It's just a little while, and then it burns away... Love is a fog that burns with the first daylight of reality.

Charles Bukowski

Love, Morning, Reality

My dear, Find what you love and let it kill you. Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness. Let it kill you and let it devour your remains. For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover. ~ Falsely yours
