Any president can start a war, and use the chaos of disorder that such a war creates as an indefinite argument for prolonging it. It's a war that keeps on giving. Failure means it's even more necessary to keep failing.

Andrew Sullivan
When you put a tiny and despised minority up for a popular vote, the minority usually loses.
Andrew Sullivan
You just have to keep going. I mean I think our job, my job, is to keep articulating that I exist and that there are lots of people like me exist and we just have no home.

Homophobia: the fear that another man will treat you like you treat women.
Andrew Sullivan
If you are a gay couple living in Alabama, you know one thing: your family has no standing under the law and it can and will be violated by strangers.
Andrew Sullivan
In this nonfundamentalist understanding of faith, practice is more important than theory, love more important than law, and mystery is seen as an insight into truth rather than an obstacle. It is the great lie of our time that all religious faith has to be fundamentalist to be valid.

The New York Times had not become The New York Times overnight. It had to earn its reputation day-by-day.
Andrew Sullivan
I think if someone is writing continuously for 10 years and has not changed their mind about something - there's something wrong with them. They're not really thinking.
Andrew Sullivan
We currently have a government planning to go to Mars, heal broken marriages, and build bridges to nowhere - and also one that cannot wage a war competently, cannot respond to a hurricane adequately, and cannot enforce borders.
