George Carlin Quotes


So I say, “Live and let live.” That’s my motto. “Live and let live.” And anyone who can’t go along with that, take him outside and shoot the motherfucker. It’s a simple philosophy, but it’s always worked in our family.

Many Arabs remained in Israel and played an important part in building the modern state. While the promise of full citizenship with representation and participation was kept, there developed a differential amount of support for social services that were administered by religious authorities whereby Arabs had less government money spent on them per capita than the Jews did. In that case they have become second class citizens, not envisioned by the Israeli founders. Nonetheless, the Arabs who are Israeli citizens, have the most freedom of Muslims in any Arab country by far. Their health care is much better, average income from work is greater and unemployment is lower, and education is much better. However, there are forces in Israel working to force the total equality with Jewish citizens that was promised in this quote and others who in reaction to the support for the Arab terrorists by some Israeli Arabs, advocate more discrimination against Arabs and even expulsion.
