Charles Bukowski - Femei, la fel de amuzant și la a 2-a lectură.
“That's the problem with drinking, I thought, as I poured myself a drink. If something bad happens you drink in an attempt to forget; if something good happens you drink in order to celebrate; and if nothing happens you drink to make something happen.”“Nothing was ever in tune. People just blindly grabbed at whatever there was: communism, health foods, zen, surfing, ballet, hypnotism, group encounters, orgies, biking, herbs, Catholicism, weight-lifting, travel, withdrawal, vegetarianism, India, painting, writing, sculpting, composing, conducting, backpacking, yoga, copulating, gambling, drinking, hanging around, frozen yogurt, Beethoven, Back, Buddha, Christ, TM, H, carrot juice, suicide, handmade suits, jet travel, New York City, and then it all evaporated and fell apart. People had to find things to do while waiting to die. I guess it was nice to have a choice.”
“being alone never felt right. sometimes it felt good, but it never felt right.“
“People with no morals often considered themselves more free, but mostly they lacked the ability to feel hate or love.Morals were restrictive, but they were grounded on human experience.Many a good man has been put under the bridge by a woman.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.“
“It's possible to love a human being if you don't know them too well.”
"Any asshole can chase a skirt, art takes discipline."
"Whores are natural."
"American women drove hard bargains and the ended up looking the worst for it. The few natural American women left were mostly in Texas and Louisiana."
“Sex is interesting, but it's not totally important. I mean it's not even as important (physically) as excretion. A man can go seventy years without a piece of ass, but he can die in a week without a bowel movement.”
“Show me a man who lives alone and has a perpetually clean kitchen, and 8 times out of 9 I'll show you a man with detestable spiritual qualities.”
"Sex is kicking death in the ass while singing."
"there is always one woman to save you from another and as that woman saves you she makes ready to destroy"
"I have been treated better than I should have been not by life in general nor by the machinery of things but by women."
"A love like that was a serious illness, an illness from which you never entirely recover."
"Gradually I came to realize that my understanding of women goes only as far as the pleasure is concerned."
"Real loneliness is not necessarily limited to when you are alone."
"When a hot woman meets a hermit one of them is going to change."
