It began as a mistake. post office charles bukowski aus einem interview mit sean penn: bukowski on alcohol: alcohol is probably one of the greatest things to arrive upon the earth -- alongside of me. yes...these are two of the greatest arrivals upon the surface of the earth. so...we get along. it is ultimately destructive to most people. i'm just one apart from that. i do all of my creative work while i'm intoxicated. even with women, you know, i've always been reticent in the love-making act, so alcohol has allowed me, sexually, to be more free. it's a release, because basically i am a shy, withdrawn person, and alcohol allows me to be this hero, striding through space and time, doing all these daring things...so i like it...yeah. on cats: having a bunch of cats around is good. if you're feeling bad, you just look at the cats, you'll feel better, because they know that everything is, just as it is. there's nothing to get excited about. they just know. they're saviors. the more cats you have, the longer you live. if you have a hundred cats, you'll live ten times longer than if you have ten. someday this will be discovered, and people will have a thousand cats and live forever. it's truly ridiculous. then: bukowski: all your days aren't good, are they? sean penn: no. cb: some of them good? sp: yeah. cb: many of them? sp: yeah. (after a pause, the laughter of surprise) cb: i thought you were going to say "just a few..." how disappointing! ganzes interview unter http://bukowski.net/poems/int2.php -- = -- -- = -- -- = -- a n a . w o r d s aus dem hellblauen salon words@ana.ch http://ana.ch/words/ ana.txt seite 444 reicht ana.words weiter! vragen & kommentare & texte, die ihr davon findet, sie seien es wert, dass es die ganze welt erfaehrt, oder mindestens die redaktion, dann mailto:words@ana.ch du willst auch? immer mehr? dann abonnier auch du ana.words: http://ana.ch/txt/444 hast du genug? immer weniger? dann bestell doch nicht ana.words ab: http://ana.ch/txt/444
