You get so alone at times it just makes sense

no help for that

There's a place in the heart that
will never be filled

a space

and even during the
best moments
and
the greatest
times

we will know it

we will know it
more than
ever

there is a place in the heart that
will never be filled

and

we will wait
and
wait

in that
space

Charles Bukowski, You get so alone at times it just makes sense


"Fantasies are more than substitutes for unpleasant reality; they are also dress rehearsals, plans. All acts performed in the world begin in the imagination."

"Belief in the absence of illusions is itself an illusion"

"Kindness and intelligence don't always deliver us from the pitfalls and traps: there are always failures of love, of will, of imagination. There is no way to take the danger out of human relationships"

Barbara Grizzuti Harrison


When ordinary people have ordinary thoughts, everything is fine, no one worries. When special people have special thoughts..great, perfectly normal.
But then, when a special person wants something normal, something that everyone else wants and seems to have, it's like the earth moves.

"What the hell are you thinking?!"

"Thinking?? Thinking! I usually think too much and now, finally I am not thinking and just feeling and wishing and you tell me I can't?!"

"The trouble with most people is that they think with their hopes or fears or wishes rather than with their minds."

Will Durant


"No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thinking. "

Voltaire
