Quotes

Bill Hicks: The world is like a ride at an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it, you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are.

The man was a genius!!!
6 March 2005 | by (United Kingdom) – See all my reviews

Bill Hicks was the best comic of his generation and when i read from todays top comics (Bill Bailley for instance) dropping his name as an influence it makes me confident that Bills legacy will continue.

The only problem i have with this performance is that i'm always hit with a tinge of sadness in his closing words.

Quite ironically Bill is one of 'the good guys'he speaks about he himself one of those who stops to tell us not to live in fear that life is just a ride and cruelly as with the other truth-sayers that came before nature robbed us of him!!!

RIP Bill
