"At Bishop Hayes High School, George Carlin only lasted two years, they didn't know what to do with him. Anyone who really knew him from the start understood that. But every student that met him, remembers him. Now, he is listed among notable graduates, along with Regis Philbin and Martin Scorsese, only they follow it with "did not graduate" in parenthesis. George changed us."

"No one has ever drowned in sweat."

There are probably more annoying things than being hectored about African development by a wealthy Irish rock star in a cowboy hat, but I can't think of one at the moment.

"Humans think they are smarter than dolphins because we build cars and buildings and start wars, etc., and all that dolphins do is swim in the water, eat fish, and play around. Dolphins believe that they are smarter for exactly the same reasons."

Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain and most fools do.

Ben Franklin


Who is wise? He that learns from everyone.

Who is powerful? He that governs his passions.

Who is rich? He that is content

Who is that? NO ONE

Wish I understood this one before!

Genius is no more than childhood recaptured at will, childhood equipped now with man's physical means to express itself, and with the analytical mind that enables it to bring order into the sum of experience, involuntarily amassed.
Charles Baudelaire

It is by universal misunderstanding that all agree. For if, by ill luck, people understood each other, they would never agree.
