Lovers Quotes

I was glad I wasn't in love, that I wasn't happy with the world. I like being at odds with everything. People in love often become edgy, dangerous. They lose their sense of perspective. They lose their sense of humor. They become nervous, psychotic bores. They even become killers.

Copy quote

Charles Bukowski

Women

Being In Love, Crush

— I was worried you'd disappeared for good.
— That's what I wanted to do.
— I couldn't sleep at night. You made me suffer.
— I wanted that too.
— You can be very cruel.
— Like anyone who's in love.

So tell me now, where was my fault?
In loving you with my whole heart.

Ce n’est pas toujours le dévot extrème
Le plus vrai croyant,
Ni toujours celui qui dit: je vous aime,
Le mieux vous aimant.

So, I'm seeing someone. You'll never guess who. We're the last two people in the world who would ever get together. But here we are. The last two people in the world.

Let's never forget this moment. Life will get busy again. Normality will kick in. Let's never forget how this feels.

Magic moments,
When two hearts are carin'!
Magic moments,
Memories we've been sharin'...

Do you remember once upon a time
When you were mine?
The stars above were bright and new.
I pulled them down for you,
Just when I fell in love again.

Money will say more in one moment than the most eloquent lover can in years.

So when men bury us beneath the yew
Thy crimson-stainèd mouth a rose will be,
And thy soft eyes lush bluebells dimmed with dew,
And when the white narcissus wantonly
Kisses the wind its playmate, some faint joy
Will thrill our dust, and we will be again fond maid and boy.

“Here at last is a true lover,” said the Nightingale. “Night after night have I sung of him, though I knew him not: night after night have I told his story to the stars, and now I see him. His hair is dark as the hyacinth-blossom, and his lips are red as the rose of his desire; but passion has made his face like pale ivory, and sorrow has set her seal upon his brow.”
