The Laughing Heart by Charles Bukowski

"your life is your life don't let it be clubbed into dank submission. be on the watch. there are ways out. there is light somewhere. it may not be much light but it beats the darkness. be on the watch. the gods will offer you chances. know them. take them. you can't beat death but you can beat death in life, sometimes. and the more often you learn to do it, the more light there...

The Dancing Gorilla

Can I have your attention for a few minutes? Great, that is exactly what I want to talk about today, getting people's attention! I'd also like to talk about what should happen once you get people's attention.

Yes, I know I...
