“She's mad, but she's magic. There's no lie in her fire.”
― Charles Bukowski

“She was desperate and she was choosey
at the same time and, in a way, beautiful, but she didn't have quite enough going for her to become what
she imagined herself to be.”
― Charles Bukowski, Factotum

“Lighting new cigarettes,
pouring more
drinks.

It has been a beautiful
fight.

Still
is.”
― Charles Bukowski, You Get So Alone at Times That it Just Makes Sense

"Fuck you," said the raven.”
― Neil Gaiman, American Gods
