Andrew Sullivan
Even if it's deep unhappiness, it's your unhappiness.
Andrew Sullivan
I think of these imperial adventures like welfare programs you start them with all good intentions, they never end, they go on forever and get more expensive as they go on.

I think sex is completely absurdly demonized in our culture. But in the end, however much sex you want to have, with however many people in how many ways, to be loved and to love is what human beings really want.
Andrew Sullivan
A mind is a wonderful thing to change.
Andrew Sullivan
I'm not going to sit around an pretend I'm not thinking things on my blog when I am thinking them and when I'm open to rebuttal.

Andrew Sullivan
To rid the world of Osama bin Laden, Anwar al-Awlaki and Moammar Qaddafi within six months: if Obama were a Republican, he'd be on Mount Rushmore by now.
Andrew Sullivan
It's also one thing to see a celebrity or some kind of character on a TV show being gay. It's a totally different thing when you know your husband... not your husband, but your brother or your friend or the dude you hung out in high school was gay. I mean, that is what changes people's minds, what changes people's minds.
Andrew Sullivan
For me, friendship has always been the most accessible of relationships - certainly far more so than romantic love. Friendship, I learned, provided a buffer in the interplay of emotions, a distance that made the risk of intimacy bearable, a space that allowed the other person to remain safely another person.
Andrew Sullivan
Homophobia: the fear that another man will treat you like you treat women.
Andrew Sullivan
I think a blog to live really has to be probably four or five times a day.
Andrew Sullivan
What's great about it is that you see, the great struggle for gay people is that the politics is just not going to work for us.
Andrew Sullivan
How can you tell when a political ideology has become the equivalent of a religion?
