The following is transcript of one of Carlin's program, not the above unfortunately, but it helps to read it.

I love words. I thank you for hearing my words.

there. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.

other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go

Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were1 }9 ]5 t: B- X! P5 @4 ]2 K
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I

it takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very, Q" F" O& @& Z4 s( ?9 U# N+ c1 e
imprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to% x/ r# h% V' }& B) Q5 x
hurt one another quite often. People much wiser than I am said,

than 2 people trying to kill one another. I, of course, can agree. It is% f1 x# C; ?! e
a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but8 V1 d% t9 R( @" x: p: ^1 H
I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for

Sherrif, we're gonna Fuck you now, but we're gonna Fuck you slow."; J/ s$ N6 u( y4 b2 d" I. s
So maybe next year I'll have a whole fuckin' ramp on the N word.
