I don't believe in luck. I believe in preparation. I believe in seizing opportunities. I believe in making your own luck.

"I'm not a prophet. I'm just a guy who sees the future."
"Some people see the glass half full. Others see it half empty. I see a glass that's twice as big as it needs to be."
"I’m completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death."
"I love people. I just can't stand their company."
"Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things."
About George Carlin (1937-2008)
American stand-up comedian whose 'Seven Words You Can't Say on Television' (1972) reached the Supreme Court and reshaped US obscenity law. Closely associated with Richard Pryor (countercultural-comedy peer) and Lenny Bruce (predecessor in obscenity-law fights). For an intellectual contrast, see Tipper Gore, co-founder of the Parents Music Resource Center — the PMRC's 1985 Senate hearings on 'explicit' content labeling are exactly the cultural-establishment force Carlin's free-speech comedy was organized against.
