Charles Bukowski - Style (Gak Sato)

Style is the answer to everything.

A fresh way to approach a dull or dangerous thing

To do a dull thing with style is preferable to doing a dangerous thing without it

To do a dangerous thing with style is what I call art

Bullfighting can be an art

Boxing can be an art

Loving can be an art

Opening a can of sardines can be an art

Not many have style

Not many can keep style

I have seen dogs with more style than men,although not many dogs have style.

Cats have it with abundance.

When Hemingway put his brains to the wall with a shotgun,that was style.

Or sometimes people give you style

Joan of Arc had style

John the Baptist

JesusSocrates

Caesar

García Lorca.

I have met men in jail with style.

I have met more men in jail with style than men out of jail.

Style is the difference, a way of doing, a way of being done.

Six herons standing quietly in a pool of water,

Or you, naked, walking out of the bathroom without seeing me.
