Bill Hicks is the most intelligent and daring person I could think of. I constantly listen to him for encouragement, beats your average selfmotivating crap anyday.
He exposed the hypocrisy of organised religion, politicians, the media, healthnuts, non-smokers and so on. And he exposed himself, too. That's the real courageous thing, the other stuff is just intelligent.
I don't know much about the man, well, I can sense Hicks really was a beautiful and compassionate person by listening to his work, but I just decided yesterday that I will spend the Holidays reading a biography about him.
So I really appreciate his name being mentioned amongst us here. God, we need Bill Hicks more than ever...
