How much do you smoke, sir? Two packs a day, is that right? Pussy. I go through two lighters a day. That's right, two lighters! You're a health nut compared to me. You're like the Jack LaLanne of smokers compared to me.
Here is my final point...About drugs, about alcohol, about pornography...What business is it of yours what I do, read, buy, see, or take into my body as long as I do not harm another human being on this planet?
Life is only a dream and we are the imagination of ourselves.
Awesome!
Bill Hicks
Yup!
And on the seventh day, god stepped back and said and said, “This is my creation, perfect in every way… oh, dammit I left all this pot all over the place. Now they’ll think I want them to smoke it… Now I have to create Republicans.”
When did mediocrity and banality become a good image for your children? I want my children to listen to people who FUCKING ROCKED! I don't care if they died in puddles of their own vomit, I want someone who plays from their FUCKING HEART!
I love going to the movies. So I'm watching Terminator 2 and I'm thinking 'you know what? There is no way that you will ever be able to top these special effects in a movie again, you cannot top this shit.' Unless we started using terminally ill stunt people in the motion picture industry.
It's always funny until someone gets hurt.
Then it's just hilarious.
… We live in a world where John Lennon was murdered, yet Barry Manilow continues to put out fucking albums. God-dammit! If you're gonna kill somebody, have some fucking taste. I'll drive you to Kenny Rogers' house.
“I ascribe to Mark Twain's theory that the last person who should be President is the one who wants it the most. The one who should be picked is the one who should be dragged kicking and screaming into the White House.”

Clearly "Achy Breaky Heart", Billy Ray Cyrus (1992).
Every time I hear even a couple of notes of it, Bill Hicks starts making sense in my head.
God help me. I'm so tired. I need my sleep. I make no bones about it. I need eight hours a day - and at least ten at night
I never got along with my dad. Kids used to come up to me and say, “My dad can beat up your dad.” I’d say Yeah? When?
I'm just trying to rid the world of all these fevered egos that are tainting our collective consciousness and making us pay a higher psychic price than we imagine.
“A war is when TWO armies are fighting!” — Bill Hicks
Alcohol kills more people than crack, coke and heroin combined...so thanks for inviting me to your little alcoholic drug den.
Your regular reminder that *none* of what is happening now is new - for generations imperial powers have lied as they waged war on the poor and Brown people.
35 years ago, Bill Hicks said this in his stand-up set, and all that has changed are the names.

ETERNAL SUFFERING AWAITS ANYONE WHO QUESTIONS GOD'S INFINITE LOVE. - BILL HICKS
God is a con
Fuck religion
Go back to bed, America. Your government has figured out how it all transpired. Go back to bed, America. Your government is in control again. Here. Here's American Gladiators. Watch this, shut up.
Where have I been? I've been on my flying saucer tour. Which means like flying saucers I too have been appearing in small southern towns in front of a handful of hillbillies lately...no one doubts my existence.
"I've seen a lot of weird shit on drugs. I've never ever ever EVER EVER looked at an egg and thought it was a fuckin' brain." – Bill Hicks
In light of yet another shedding of blood & senseless spending of treasure, I needed to see this, the close of Bill Hicks' incredible live concert film, "Revelations."
In case you also wish to remember, or are just curious, enjoy! (I recommend you see the whole thing).
Rest in peace, Bill
