Charles Bukowski
The male, for all his bravado and exploration, is the loyal one, the one who generally feels love. The female is skilled at betrayal and torture and damnation.
Charles Bukowski
When a writer is swayed with his fame and his fortune, you can float him down the river with the turds.
Charles Bukowski
Find what you love and let it kill you. For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover.
Charles Bukowski
I'm going, she said. I love you but you're crazy, you're doomed.
Charles Bukowski
Those who preach god, need god Those who preach peace do not have peace Those who preach love do not have love
Charles Bukowski
Love is a form of prejudice. You love what you need, you love what makes you feel good, you love what is convenient. How can you say you love one person when there are ten thousand people in the world that you would love more if you ever met them? But you'll never meet them.
Charles Bukowski
I don't like jail, they got the wrong kind of bars in there.

If I hadn't been a drunkard, I probably would have committed suicide long ago.
Charles Bukowski
Love is all right for those who can handle the psychic overload. It's like trying to carry a full garbage can on your back over a rushing river of piss.
Charles Bukowski
Long ago, among other lies they were taught that silence was bravery.
Charles Bukowski
I tell you such fine music waits in the shadows of hell.
Charles Bukowski
Love breaks my bones and I laugh
Charles Bukowski
we know God is dead, they've told us, but listening to you I wasn't sure.
Charles Bukowski
if you think they didn't go crazy in tiny rooms just like you're doing now without women without food without hope then you're not ready.
Charles Bukowski
Fay had a spot of blood on the left side of her mouth and I took a wet cloth and wiped it off. Women were meant to suffer no wonder they asked for constant declarations of love.
Charles Bukowski
The world is full of boring, identical and mindless people.
Charles Bukowski
It was like a church in there as only the truly lost sit in bars on Tuesday mornings at 8:00 a.m.
Charles Bukowski
A love like that was a serious illness, an illness from which you never entirely recover.
Charles Bukowski
