Famous Lost Words: George Carlin

| 8 Comments

(In light of Mr. Carlin’s passing on June 22, 2008, I thought it appropriate to run these quotes from him.)

“Religion has actually convinced people that there’s an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do.”
“And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever ’til the end of time! But He loves you!”

Here’s a few more:

“Frisbeetarianism is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck.”

“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.”

“If it’s true that our species is alone in the universe, then I’d have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.”

(Unfortunately, I don’t think Carlin was a believer…)
