More quotes by Andrew Sullivan
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
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.
Andrew Sullivan
There is something about hearing your president affirm your humanity that you don't know what effect it has until you hear it.
Andrew Sullivan
The success of the stock connect program and the increased market volatility means investors are looking for more products to access China markets performance than exchange traded funds, and futures are feeding that rising demand.
Andrew Sullivan
I'm not one of these people who thinks everybody's gay.
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
I think you earn your reputation for honesty and integrity literally hour-by-hour, and taste for that matter.
Andrew Sullivan
The one man more responsible for destroying the Democratic centrist revival, for throwing away the Clinton legacy, and for suicidally pitching his party to the populist left was Al Gore

Don't fool yourself that you're blogging when you're really just putting stuff up online.
Andrew Sullivan
I think a blog to live really has to be probably four or five times a day.
Andrew Sullivan
I think essentially corrupting institutions in Washington are turning conservatism into something that is really very creepy, but also emotionally and psychically powerful for people.
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
When Bush says that Abu Ghraib was the work of a few, he forgot to mention that he was one of them.
Andrew Sullivan
I actually bought the argument that if we democratized Iraq, we could create a space for venting some of the stuff that's going on in the Middle East in these autocratic regimes that is expressing itself through jihadism, because it has nowhere else to express itself.
Andrew Sullivan
The Tea Party we were told is only about economics not true. It was always about economics and social issues. They just hid the social issues and now we just see who they really are.
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
Bush has legitimized a huge expansion of the welfare state, liberalizing immigration, and using force for democratization abroad. All the next Democratic president has to do to finish Bush's hard work is to raise taxes to pay for it all.
Andrew Sullivan
Al Gore's problem, in my view, is that he never liked politics. He's actually deeply uncomfortable in it but felt he had to do it because of his father. He's much more comfortable in a private sector role and has, in fact, been much more successful in a private sector role, and I admire him for that.
Andrew Sullivan
Not many people sleep with other men and when the other man leaves have a nervous breakdown.
Andrew Sullivan
I've never been a partisan, I've never been a Republican, I've never been a Democrat, ever, which is why I was very frustrated being called a gay Republican when I never attached myself to that.
