  • Charles Bukowski on Drinking, Love & Life in the Gutter
    Henry Charles Bukowski (/buːˈkaʊski/ boo-KOW-skee; born Heinrich Karl Bukowski, German: [ˈhaɪnʁɪç ˈkaʁl buˈkɔfski]; August 16, 1920 - March 9, 1994) was a German-American poet, novelist, and short story writer.
    His writing was influenced by the social, cultural, and economic ambience of his home city of Los Angeles.[4] His work addresses the ordinary lives of poor Americans, the act of writing, alcohol, relationships with women, and the drudgery of work. Bukowski wrote thousands of poems, hundreds of short stories and six novels, eventually publishing over 60 books. The FBI kept a file on him as a result of his column Notes of a Dirty Old Man in the LA underground newspaper Open City.[5][6]

    "People go to restaurant to order food, they don't even want to eat food, they're coming because it's time to eat. They are not even hungry." This is so deep.

    This is taken from different documentaries that have been one youtube for years, some conversations are strangely edited, the context gets lost. I guess its a contemporary sign that media becomes shorter and flashes points without the build up. I would recommend watching these three videos in full, instead of this distilled version..
    -The charles bukowski tapes ( barbet schroeder did this film to finance their collaborative film "Barfly" )
    - Born Into This" by John Dullaghan
    - The belgian tv interviews in three parts from the early eighties.
    All are here on youtube for free.
    There is also a great feature film by the norwegian director Bent Hammer called FACTOTUM, after one of his books. Matt Dillon plays Buck, and does a really good job.

      It´s an interesting question, but almost all great lessons come from hard life experiences. If you choose to learn something that is really hard it comes with a little bit of suffering to get there.
