"Not being able to love fully they will believe your love incomplete and then they will hate you. And their hatred will be perfect like a shining diamond. Like a knife. Like a mountain. Like a tiger. Like a hemlock. Their finest art."
Charles Bukowski – The Genius of the Crowd (via pity—sex)
"Do not settle for less than exactly what you want. Your heart’s desires are there for a reason. Chase them. Pursue them relentlessly. Do not lose sight of your goals. They are your very reason for being."
"It feels good to think about you when I’m warm in bed. I feel as if you’re curled up there beside me, fast asleep. And I think how great it would be if it were true."
