“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”
― Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets

“I only want sweet peace and kindliness when I awaken -- but there's always some finger pointing, telling me some terrible deed I committed during the night. It seems I make a lot of mistakes and it seems that I am not allowed any.”
― Charles Bukowski

“I feel strangely normal.”
― Charles Bukowski, The Captain is Out to Lunch and the Sailors Have Taken Over the Ship

“People who believe in politics are like people who believe in God: they are sucking wind through bent straws.”
― Charles Bukowski
