The only comedian worthy or using the seven words you can't say on TV: Shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker, and tits. R.I.P. Man.
Somewhere in Heaven, George Carlin is telling God to fuck off.

The only comedian EVER who could speak and lecture the truth that the public like listening to. It was because of his cleverness and wit that people like to listen to common problems and social issues. One of the greatest thinkers and comedians of the 20th and 21st century.
"We are the proud parents of a child whose self-esteem is sufficient that we do not need to promote his minor scholastic achievements on the back of our car." -George Carlin

A man who was incarnated by The Lord and then applied for a name change to "George Carlin". His comedy was direct, in your face, and to the point. He was also an accomplished philosopher.
I don't want to die! I want to live! That's the great secret to life...Not dying!
-George Carlin

The absolutely greatest comedian ever to grace the Earth with his presence.
"I'd like to point out that during the twentieth century, white, God-fearing, predominately Christian Europe produced Lenin, Stalin, Franco, Hitler and Mussolini."
