![“[George Carlin] was obsessive about time; he was obsessive compulsive about his material and making things shorter and more perfect. He did an HBO hour every other year. It's live; you have to be off-stage at 55 minutes. It's a network; you've got to be off. And it's perfect.” quote by Jay Mohr](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/50e/jay-mohr-4777_hbo_george-carlin-was-obsessive-about-time-h_1612309.jpg)
