George Carlin on Entropy
"...Nobody trusts the local water supply, nobody, and that amuses me. I like that, I admit I'm a bit perverted, but it amuses me that no one can really trust the water anymore. And the thing I like about it the most is, it means the system is beginning to collapse, and everything is slowly breaking down. I enjoy chaos and disorder, not just because they help me professionally, they're also my hobby, you see, I'm an entropy fan. I'm an entropy fan, when I first heard of entropy in high school science I was attracted to it immediately. When they told me that in nature all systems are breaking down, I thought what a good thing, what a good thing, perhaps I can make some small contribution in this area myself. And of course it's not just in nature, in this country, the whole social structure just beginning to collapse, you watch, just beginning now to come apart at the edges and the seams. And the thing I like about that, is that it means it makes the news on television more interesting,... The planet will be here for a long, long, long time after we're gone, and it will heal itself, it will cleanse itself, cause that's what it does. It's a self correcting system..." The decay and disintegration of this culture is astonishingly amusing if you are emotionally detached from it... I sincerely believe that if you think there's a solution, you're part of the problem. My motto: Fu*% Hope! -George Carlin, http://www.georgecarlin.com/
