I don't blame younger generations for their lack of awareness. Americans in general are not interested in history.

A movement that seeks to advance only its own members is going to accomplish little

Marches work, rallies work, civil disobedience works, direct action works, voting works, writing letters works, speaking to churches and schools works, rioting works.

I don't even want to go to the Pride marches anymore. The politics have been removed almost entirely. They're just huge corporate showcases.

This is a terrible time to be young, I think. It's really hard.

If I had to say what my one greatest achievement is, it's that I lasted, and I'm still happy. I hope that comes through.

Any social movement that seeks to benefit only its own members I think is a shallow movement and probably doomed to failure.

Film really is a collaborative art.

You can have all the wine and dragons that my money can buy. That’s what the old woman told me, and I listened.

Im working on just finding a boyfriend right now.

A theocracy is a government ruled directly by God, and for us it means "Theocracy within". In other words, trying to live by God's principles instead of just living selfishly.

Government is the enemy of conservatism and freedom.

God cannot be realized without love. Yes, sincere love.

Our leaders are the finest men, that's whey we elect them again and again.

There exists in the world today a gigantic reservoir of good will toward us, the American people.
