Once a woman turns against you, forget it. They can love you, then something turns in them. They can watch you dying in a gutter, run over by a car, and they'll spit on you.

More quotes by Charles Bukowski
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
I take much pleasure in being alone but there is also a strange warm grace in not being alone.
Charles Bukowski
I wanted the whole world or nothing.
Charles Bukowski
Basically, that's why I wrote: to save my ass, to save my ass from the madhouse, from the streets, from myself.
Charles Bukowski
Where did all the women come from? The supply was endless. Each one of them was individual, different. Their pussies were different, their kisses were different, their breasts were different, but no man could drink them all, there were too many of them, crossing their legs, driving men mad. What a feast!
Charles Bukowski
Almost everybody is born a genius and buried an idiot.
Charles Bukowski
Beware of those who seek constant crowds they are nothing alone.
Charles Bukowski
It's possible to love a human being if you don't know them too well.
Charles Bukowski
It was a joy! Words weren't dull, words were things that could make your mind hum. If you read them and let yourself feel the magic, you could live without pain, with hope, no matter what happened to you.
Charles Bukowski
I've never met another man I'd rather be.
Charles Bukowski
I tell you such fine music waits in the shadows of hell.
Charles Bukowski
There's a light somewhere. It may not be much light but it beats the darkness.
Charles Bukowski
In a capitalistic society the losers slaved for the winners and you have to have more losers than winners.
Charles Bukowski
It’s so easy to be easy—if you let it.
Charles Bukowski
That's how it is with books, isn't it: They're not in a hurry. They'll wait for you till you're ready. People empty me. I have to go away to refill.
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
He had long nostril hairs, powerfully intimidating, like an unscheduled nightmare.
Charles Bukowski
All a guy needed was a chance. Somebody was alway controlling who got a chance and who didn't.
Charles Bukowski
When you clean up a city, you destroy it.
Charles Bukowski
You can forgive a fool because he only runs in one direction and doesn't deceive anybody. It's the deceivers who make you feel bad.
Charles Bukowski
