More quotes by Harvey Fierstein
Theater is my temple and my religion and my act of faith. Strangers sit in a room together and believe together.
Harvey Fierstein
I do believe we're all connected. I do believe in positive energy. I do believe in the power of prayer. I do believe in putting good out into the world. And I believe in taking care of each other.
Harvey Fierstein
Always admit when you're wrong. You'll save thousands in therapy... and a few friendships too.
Harvey Fierstein
Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life define yourself.
Harvey Fierstein
It's a wonderful world. You can't go backwards. You're always moving forward. It's the wonderful part about life. And that's terrific.
Harvey Fierstein
A musical takes two to five years. You have to love it to put in the years.
Harvey Fierstein
Theater has to resonate in your heart in a way that movies don't.
Harvey Fierstein
I have the world's worst taste in men, so now I simply have wonderful relationships of the friend kind, but trying to settle down with somebody? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm beyond that.
Harvey Fierstein
Is a gay play a play that has sex with other plays?
Harvey Fierstein
I actually may do a musical next year... not one that I've written one that I may star in. Plus my concert and other people's work and all of a sudden you've got a very full life.
Harvey Fierstein
I really am a theater person. That means you put something out there, and you let it go. Tomorrow night is a new performance.
Harvey Fierstein
Actually, I think the average voice is like 70 percent tone and 30 percent noise. My voice is 95 percent noise.
Harvey Fierstein
I often say that if you want to really want to understand the contract of marriage just ask anyone who has been divorced. The marriage contract is one of property rights. Or maybe you can look in the bible to see what Adam had to say about divorce since Eve was his second wife.
Harvey Fierstein
To work all the time is to be incredibly lucky.
Harvey Fierstein
The great thing about suicide is that it's not one of those things you have to do now or you lose your chance. I mean, you can always do it later.
Harvey Fierstein
When I went into 'Fiddler,' I wondered about the response I'd get - the backlash because I'm openly gay. There was none. I toured Canada and America, and not one single review suggested that I played the role gay or that I seemed anything but Tevye.
Harvey Fierstein
A child's kiss is magic. Why else would they be so stingy with them?
Harvey Fierstein
I actually pray everyday, but I don't believe in God.
Harvey Fierstein
Art has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate, inspire and motivate.
Harvey Fierstein
In no way be bullied into silence. Hardly ever permit on your own to become made a sufferer. Acknowledge no one's definition of one's lifetime define oneself
Harvey Fierstein
