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

Words are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid.

words that hurt can heal, it is a matter of how you pick them.

There are some that would have you not use certain 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 were

/ T$ R; q# F$ \don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such

imprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to
" m2 f/ J+ J7 a- Uhurt one another quite often. People much wiser than I am said,

a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but( |- b* h# J6 I- S4 q2 L
I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for( e3 e0 h! F8 G2 s" `3 q% r
the word Kill in all of those movie cliches we grew up with. "Okay,
