Charles Bukowski Good Woman Quotations

And yet women-good women--frightened me because they eventually wanted your soul, and what was left of mine, I wanted to keep.

Don't wait for the good woman. She doesn't exist.

A yet women -good women- frightened me because they eventually wanted your soul, and what was left of mine, I wanted to keep. Basically I craved prostitutes, base women, because they were deadly and hard and made no personal demands. Nothing was lost when they left. Yet at the same time I yearned for a gentle, good woman, despite the overwhelming price.
