Charles BukowskiIt was like any other relationship, there was jealousy on both sides, there were split-ups and reconciliations. There were also fragmented moments of great peace and beauty. I often tried to get away from her and she tried to get away from me but it was difficult: Cupid, in his strange way, was really there.
Charles BukowskiI am not a snob; it is simply that I am not interested with what most people have to say, or what they want to do โ mostly with my time.
