Entire 1974 Album "Toledo Window Box". One long quote. Carlin and Pryor did more for race relations than any govt ever did. Neither went gentle into that good night, and God Bless Them!

Too many to choose from. Here are some of my favorites:

“Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.”

“Ever wonder about those people who spend $2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward. ”

“There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls.”

“Isn’t it a bit unnerving that doctors call what they do “practice”?”

“I have as much authority as the Pope. I just don’t have as many people who believe it.”

“I don't have pet peeves - I have major psychotic fricking hatreds.”

“If the black box flight recorder is never damaged during a plane crash, why isn’t the whole airplane made out of that stuff? ”

“Don’t just teach your children to read… Teach them to question what they read. Teach them to question everything.”

“The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live.”

As George himself, said about our government, "They don't want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking."

Maybe the master plan is working, because there are 20 downvotes and counting...

Embarrassing that there are people who love using comedians as pinnacles of brilliant thought. It's tiring and intellectually stunting

Carlin would have down voted you just for spite.

You're named after a mythical (bullshite) horned rabbit that can be found in Applebees...

I'm not sure if you comment is hypocritical or just stupid.

I didnt know this.
quote:

Carlin joined the United States Air Force when he was old enough, and was trained as a radar technician. He was stationed at Barksdale Air Force Base in Bossier City, Louisiana. He also began working as a disc jockey at radio station KJOE, in nearby Shreveport. Labeled an "unproductive airman" by his superiors, Carlin was generally discharged early on July 29, 1957. During his time in the Air Force he had been court-martialed three times, and also received many nonjudicial punishments.[15]
