Hear Geörge Notes

Probably the majority of the Hear Geörge posters are plagiarized, in keeping with the best traditions on the web. We took many of the sayings from a sheet of unattributed quotes, and the ones that we may claim as original are probably quotations we remembered from some other sources.

If you know the original source of a Hear Geörge quotation not listed below, please let me know.

Immortality

This badly mangled Woody Allen quote was corrected by Kevin Martin, who quipped "Woody Allen is rolling over in his, um, daughter's bed."

The correct (and funnier) quote: "I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve immortality by not dying."

Death

This quote is from the TV show "Doctor, Doctor", said by the character played by Matt Frewer (of Max Headroom fame). Hear Geörge put the correct attribution on this quote from the start, a rarity.

Crime

This is a quote from Watergate figure G. Gordon Liddy, someone who knows a thing or two about crime. This is the only other quote that received the proper attribution at the time it was distributed.
