The quotes below are attributed to Bukowski here on good reads, yet there is no verifiable source. So, I'd like to challenge anyone to find the published source (book, poem, prose piece, interview, letter) for this attribution that is not based entirely off of something someone quoted off the internet. Here are the Goodreads links:
http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/54181...
http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/67754...
My suggestion is that the burden of proof is on those asserting this is Bukowski and if such a source cannot be shown, the quote should be removed.
Note: Bukowski.net discussed this and concluded that this is essentially bunk. (see: http://bukowskiforum.com/threads/find... )
Thanks,
Very curious to see what you guys turn up.
