I'm not saying I'm better than you. I'm just saying I'm better than you at being me.

More from George Carlin
"I'm not a cynic. I'm a disappointed idealist."
"I'm a pessimist. I'm really good at it. I've been practicing for a long time."
"I don't believe in fate. I believe in choice. I believe in making your own choices, and living with the consequences."
"I'm not a genius. I'm just a guy who's smart enough to know what he doesn't know."
"If it weren't for the fact that the TV set and the refrigerator are so far apart, some of us wouldn't get any exercise at all."
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.
