A Quote by Charles Bukowski

I don't write so much now. I'm getting on 33, pot belly and creeping dementia. — © Charles Bukowski
I don't write so much now. I'm getting on 33, pot belly and creeping dementia.
Well, the American public always wanted to vote for a guy ? and Bush was the perfect guy ? who they'd want to have over for pot-roast. And George Bush is that guy. He does that well. You'd like to have him over for pot-roast. He reminds you of yourself. Okay. Well, now he's been over, he's had the pot-roast. But he's getting drunk and now he's talking about stem cells and Terri Schiavo and gay marriage. And now he's the guest that won't leave.
I am a grandmother now, and that means age is creeping on, creeping on.
That's the thing with dementia. If you're with somebody who has a serious illness, you can usually talk to them, have a laugh every now and then - the person is still with you. With dementia, there's no conversation; there's no togetherness, no sharing.
I spent a lot of time researching dementia, read papers on the subject, and also found a lot of dementia diaries on the Internet which were a great help in getting an insight into the disease.
I don't trust or love anyone. Because people are so creepy. Creepy creepy creeps. Creeping around. Creeping here and creeping there. Creeping everywhere.
Everything is so superb and breathtaking. I am creeping forward on my belly like they do in war movies.
There are so many people getting dementia. It is like an epidemic now. It is a terrible disease because once you get it, your life changes completely.
You can't have been here long, you haven't got a pot belly.
I can't stand that - those women in 'Waiting to Exhale' now. I can't stand them. But that's because I'm 53 and not 33. But what they were experiencing at 33, I identified with it.
Your pot belly, I'd give that a 10 for size.
Be worried if no one is criticizing you. Your job in life is to ignore the 33% who will never like you and do your best to convince the 33% who don't care either way to join the 33% who love you
Imagine me going around with a pot belly. It would mean political ruin.
I'm not saying pot is a bad thing. I know plenty of people who should be smoking pot. I'm just not one of those people. I don't think it would be the best drug for me. What am I going to do, start doing drugs at my age? It's a little late. I'm a mother of two. It's probably not the best idea for me to start getting into it now.
The United States has been called the melting pot of the world. But it seems to me that the colored man either missed getting into the pot or he got melted down.
A new poll shows that Tiger Woods' popularity has dropped from 85 percent to 33 percent. President Obama's popularity is also at 33 percent, but Tiger had more fun getting there.
Now when I travel, I'm more adventurous. If I find myself creeping back into that 'not going to leave the hotel' vibe, I take baby steps, like having a nice dinner on my own or getting my nails done.
