More from George Carlin
"I'm a little freaked out by the fact that I'm becoming my father. I find myself saying things like, 'Turn off the lights, I'm not paying to light the whole neighborhood!'"
"I'm a pessimist. I'm really good at it. I've been practicing for a long time."
"I'm not a fan of social media. I think it's a bunch of people who are trying to impress each other, and they're all pretending to be happy."
"I don't have a problem with drugs. I have a problem with the police."
"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.
