“The ass is the face of the soul of sex.”
― Charles Bukowski

“And remember the old dogs
who fought so well:
Hemingway, Celine, Dostoevsky, Hamsun.

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, Love Is a Dog from Hell

“след това Глендолайн изнесе ръкописа си и започна да ни чете. Всъщност не беше лош, но беше съвсем аматьорски и трябваше да се редактира из основи. Глендолайн пишеше така, все едно на читателя ще му е също толкова интересно да научи за нейния живот, колкото и на самата нея — смъртоносна грешка.”
― Charles Bukowski, Women

“it's the same as before
or the other time
or the time before that.
here's a cock
and here's a cunt
and here's trouble.

only each time
you think
well now I've learned:
I'll let her do that
and I'll do this,
I no longer want it all,
just some comfort
and some sex
and only a minor
love.

now I'm waiting again
and the years run thin.
I have my radio
and the kitchen walls
are yellow.
I keep dumping bottles
and listening
for footsteps.

I hope that death contains
less than this.”
― Charles Bukowski, Love Is a Dog from Hell
