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.
Charles BukowskiSometimes you climb out of bed in the morning and you think, I'm not going to make it, but you laugh inside โ remembering all the times you've felt that way.
Charles Bukowskiif you get married they think you're finished and if you are without a woman they think you're incomplete.
Charles BukowskiCensorship is the tool of those who have the need to hide actualities from themselves and from others. Their fear is only their inability to face what is real, and I can't vent any anger against them. I only feel this appalling sadness. Somewhere, in their upbringing, they were shielded against the total facts of our existence. They were only taught to look one way when many ways exist.
