Weak and Powerless

Tribute to George Carlin

, , , ,

I knew about George Carlin just after he died, as one of my favourite writers was also a fan of him.

I wanted to write something since then, but now I found the smartest and most shocking quote of Carlin, that shows my feeling very well.

Originally posted by Carlin:

I look at it this way... For centuries now, man has done everything he can to destroy, defile, and interfere with nature: clear-cutting forests, strip-mining mountains, poisoning the atmosphere, over-fishing the oceans, polluting the rivers and lakes, destroying wetlands and aquifers... so when nature strikes back, and smacks him on the head and kicks him in the nuts, I enjoy that. I have absolutely no sympathy for human beings whatsoever. None. And no matter what kind of problem humans are facing, whether it's natural or man-made, I always hope it gets worse.



Enjoy

Es bastante interesante el modo sarcástico y directo de Carlín. Leí una y otra vez la cita, y estoy de acuerdo con él que esta sociedad humana es despreciable por su falta de amor a la naturaleza en sí, y a la propia naturaleza del ser humano...

Tal vez me desprecie a mi misma por ser parte de este tiempo y humana, aunque no se si es que le cabe a esta "humanidad" el significado de la palabra... cómo lo utiliza el autor de la cita.
