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
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.
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 important things are not worth knowing because they are useful. They are worth knowing because they are true.
Andrew Sullivan
[D]id you really expect fairness on the environmental issue? For a swathe of reporters, this is not a matter of empirical reporting it's a matter of faith. Bush cannot be pro-environment because he's Bush.
Andrew Sullivan
The most successful marriages, gay or straight, even if they begin in romantic love, often become friendships. It's the ones that become the friendships that last.
Andrew Sullivan
When I was about eight, I asked my mother if it was true that God knows everything about you. When she answered yes, I said, Then there's no hope for me, Mum.
Andrew Sullivan
In academia, left-liberalism is so entrenched its advocates' debating skills have gone rusty. When you've been talking to yourself for decades and imposing speech codes on everyone else, your ability to argue coherently - let alone entertainingly - inevitably wanes.
Andrew Sullivan
Blogging is to writing what extreme sports are to athletics: more free-form, more accident-prone, less formal, more alive. It is, in many ways, writing out loud.
Andrew Sullivan
My own early crusade for same-sex marriage, for example, is now mainstream gay politics. It wasn't when I started.
Andrew Sullivan
Although I never publicly defended promiscuity, I never publicly attacked it. I attempted to avoid the subject, in part because I felt, and often still feel, unable to live up to the ideals I really hold.
