People that are much younger in areas that are much more, kind of, disenfranchised, I guess, as far as the gay movement goes, they still have a language that they've discovered around things. And they have a vocabulary to use, and they have a way to express themselves even when they're not accepted.
Amy Ray
You can spend time self-identifying and figuring out what you are on that, but at some point, you just want to be who you are and not walk around telling people.
Amy Ray
Maybe our gender is one thing and our sexuality is another. And that's a cool thing I think.

When people say, 'Nothing's coming to me,' they usually don't like what's coming to them.
Amy Ray
I feel like there are a lot of people doing a lot of hard work. I think it's too early to judge, and I don't think the gay community is in any way falling short.
Amy Ray
I don't typically work that late into the night in a studio, I'm more productive during the day.
Amy Ray
I think you just have to take the bad with the good and you're going to get hurt more, but it's worth it.
Amy Ray
Tolerance ain't the same as acceptance, even though we all wish it was.
Amy Ray
The best days I have are usually days where I'm out in the woods and something happens, like I see an amazing animal like a fox, or I get a glimpse of a wild pig or something that I never see. Or crazy things happen.
Amy Ray
The impossibility and hypocrisy of a situation where kids are expected to be honest but are judged and alienated from their community because of it should not escape us.
