| | | At the beginning of the 'Revelations' show on the dvd, Bill reads off this quote before the actual show begins:
"On December 16th, 1961, the world turned upside-down and inside-out, and I was born, screaming, in America. It was the tail end of the American Dream; just before we lost our innocence irrevocably, when the tv eye brought the horror of our lives to our home for all to see.
I was told when I grew up I could be anything I wanted: a fireman, a policeman, a doctor, even President, it seemed. And for the first time in history, something new, called an astronaut. But like many kids, growing up on a steady diet of Westerns, I always wanted to be the cowboy hero. That lone voice in the wilderness, fighting corruption and evil wherever I found it, and standing for freedom, truth, and justice.
And in my heart of hearts, I still track the remnants of that dream wherever I go, in my neverending ride into the setting sun."
I cannot remember where this quote comes from; I know I've read it before. Hell, it might well be Hicks 'quoting' himself and I just don't recall it. Any help? |
