Mark Evanier remembers George Carlin: "Someone should say that he had just about all the gifts that a great comedian could have. He had a wonderful speaking voice and, when necessary, he could do characters and impressions and even verbal sound effects. He didn't do a lot of physical comedy but every now and then, he'd do a little...just to let us all know he could if he wanted to.... Onstage, he often came off as cranky, angry and contemptuous of the entire human race. Offstage, he was a decent, friendly guy to everyone...and one of those comedians who never felt he had to "perform." Nor did he stand on his celebrity."
