"I'm not a fan of organized sports. I think it's a bunch of people running around in circles, chasing a ball, and then someone wins and someone loses, and then everyone goes home."
"Don't just teach your children to read. Teach them to question what they read. Teach them to question everything."
"I'm not a conspiracy theorist, I'm a conspiracy analyst. Everything I say is based on facts."
"I'm not a legend. I'm just a guy who's been around for a long time."
"I think it's the duty of the comedian to find out where the line is and to cross it deliberately."
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.
