>"'The problem was that what he wanted to say and what people wanted him to say were two different things,' Shea recalled. [... ] 'I remember meetings and meetings and meetings with production companies like Casey-Warner and Disney and he would walk out of the meetings going, "Ugh!"

On Bill turning from Outlaw comic to Goat Boy
>"Bill had referred to himself from the stage facetiously as Randy Pan the Goat Boy at times, crossing even his imaginary line of good taste when it came to sexually explicit material. But now there was no apologizing for it. [...] the people who were his big fans were very much left-leaning liberal folk, who in those days had a quiet, sort of puritanical attitude toward sex, and certainly a very feminist attitude. Bill did his this whole Goat Boy routine, and you could feel half the theater go, "What's he saying? He can't be saying this." That made life more intriguing and more dangerous, which is what Bill always was."

On Bill's political stance
>"I don't know how to define Bill politically, but it would certainly be close to libertarian, social-anarchist, whatever. So to him the fact you had to register your car was: "Why? Tell me why?" He would't do it. He would rebel against things like that.
