"What's wrong with death sir? What are we so mortally afraid of? Why can't we treat death with a certain amount of humanity and dignity, and decency, and God forbid, maybe even humor? Death is not the enemy gentlemen. If we're going to fight a disease, let's fight one of the most terrible diseases of all, indifference."

Patch Adams (1998) was about the impact each human being has on another and the responsibility of doctors to care for their patients with humanity, for compassion to be contagious. It was about service to others and the desire to create positive change.

"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for."

The artist of this fan art accompanied the piece with a caption. "This is the character who I felt like depicting. I'm not entirely sure why. I think part of it spoke to me because of the concept of "outmodes" and how something can look so beautiful on the outside but have so much sorrow on the inside."

Although Williams is known for his comedic inclinations, he was incredibly versatile and had the ability to bring humanity, love, and loss to his characters. His interpretation of his characters was raw and had depth and he could connect with audience members as if screens were windows, portals, to a shared moment.

"I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you straightforwardly without complexities or pride. I love you because I know no other way than this. So close that your hand, on my chest, is my hand. So close that when you close your eyes, I fall asleep."
