Quotes

There’s no now, there’s no now, everything is in the near future or the recent past. But there’s no present.

You only have a short time.. Sounds a little terminal doesn’t it?

People use things like kingdom come to measure time.
“I’m gonna be standing here ’till kingdom come…”
“Shit, I don’t have that on my watch.”

George Carlin – Does time bother you?

Think for a moment about the concept of the flamethrower. Okay? The flamethrower. Because we have them. Well, *we* don’t have them, the army has them. That’s right. We don’t have any flamethrowers. I’d say we’re fucked if we have to go up against the army, wouldn’t you? But we have flamethrowers. And what this indicates to me, it means that at some point, some person said to himself, “Gee, I sure would like to set those people on fire over there. But I’m way to far away to get the job done. If only I had something that would throw flame on them.” Well, it might have ended right there, but he mentioned it to his friend. His friend who was good with tools. And about a month later, he was back. “Hey, quite a concept!” WHHOOOOOOOOSSHHH! And of course the army heard about it, and they came around. “We’d like to buy about five hundred-thousand of them please. We have some people we’d like to throw flame on. Give us five hundred thousand and paint them dark brown. We don’t want anyone to see them.”
