Charles Bukowski Quotes

2020-09-29 · by admin · [culture, quotes]

'"The problem with the world is that intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence."

  • "The difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is that in a democracy you vote first and take orders later; in a dictatorship you don't have to waste your time voting."
  • "Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must live.

    • UPDATE: That first one is apparently paraphrasing Bertrand Russell's "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts."
