In my real life, both my bosses are gay. on the 'real housewives of atlanta,' andy cohen is gay, everybody at bravo is gay - we call them the gay mafia. over at 'glee' and 'the new normal,' my boss ryan murphy is gay. on the show, my boss, played by andrew reynolds, is gay in real life. i'm surrounded by all my gay bosses.

...even if gay marriage were legalized there would still be gay men who didn't want to marry, gay men no other gay men would want to marry, and gay men who didn't want to leave the priesthood in order to marry.

I just want to be clear before we decide to do this together: i'm gay. my music is gay. my show is gay. and i love that it's gay. and i love my gay fans, and they're all going to be coming to our show. and it's going to remain gay.

I cannot prevent anyone from getting angry, or mad, or frustrated. i can only hope that they'll turn that anger and frustration and madness into something positive, so that two, three, four, five hundred will step forward, so the gay doctors will come out, the gay lawyers, the gay judges, gay bankers, gay architects i hope that every professional gay will say 'enough', come forward and tell everybody, wear a sign, let the world know. maybe that will help.

Pride became this dogma which meant you couldn't criticize anything gay - if you were the least bit critical of gay culture or people or any gay person doing any gay thing, that was an insufficient display of pride. you were suffering from internalized homophobia. as opposed to external homophobia.

This rose became a bandanna, which became a house, which became infused with all passion, which became a hideaway, which became yes i would like to have dinner, which became hands, which became lands, shores, beaches, natives on the stones, staring and wild beasts in the trees, chasing the hats of lost hunters, and all this deserves a tone.

Similar Quotes

The fame thing is interesting because i never wanted to be famous, and i never dreamt i would be famous....you know i didn't think they'd rake through my bins, i didn't expect to be photographed on the beach through long lens. i never dreamt it would impact my daughter's life negatively, which at times it has. it would be churlish to say there's nothing good about being famous; to have a total stranger walk up to you as you're walking around safeways, and say a number of nice things that they might say about your work.

It’s only the sea,’ said moomintroll. ‘every wave that dies on the beach sings a little song to a shell. but you mustn’t go inside because it’s a labyrinth and you may never come out again.

Seems there's a big debate going on about whether a new tv commercial for minute maid orange juice portrays popeye and bluto as gay lovers or just good friends. the commercial shows popeye and bluto at the beach and riding a bicycle for two. i don't think that makes them gay. i think the fact they both find olive oyl attractive, that makes them gay.

Japan is really advanced. they don't go to the beach. the beach comes to them.
