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
State sanctioned marriage is a civil contract period. A contract is not a judgment of moral value. It is a legal agreement between two parties that testifies to a meeting of minds between those consenting entities. It is not a religious act or rite and so has nothing to do with Adam and Eve or Steve or even Harvey.
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
To work all the time is to be incredibly lucky.
Harvey Fierstein
As soon as I started writing, other writers stopped wanting me acting in their shows - maybe they thought I was going to rewrite them.
Harvey Fierstein
Also, if you want to reach people, theatre is not always the best way to do it.
Harvey Fierstein
I don't believe in the afterlife, so I do think when somebody passes, it's worthy of note.
Harvey Fierstein
When a politician like Marco Rubio is willing to sacrifice his career defining immigration reform legislation solely to insure that gays and lesbians are denied equal protection under the law, we have to admit that we’re under attack. This is not pragmatic politics at work. These are the policies of bias, exclusion and unfairness.
Harvey Fierstein
Time will tell us what we did and didn't do.
Harvey Fierstein
Art has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate, inspire and motivate.
Harvey Fierstein
How time flies when you're doin all the talking.
Harvey Fierstein
You really, really, really have to love what you are going to do in theater because it is an unmerciful life. It's six days a week. It's eight performances a week. And that's doing the exact same thing over and over and over again.
Harvey Fierstein
But actually just yesterday we raised the key of one of my songs two steps up, so my voice is obviously responding. It's a muscle, and the more you use it, the more you use it right, the more you should get out of it. So yes, I sing.
Harvey Fierstein
It's through sheer will that I can sing.
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
There are easier things in life than being a drag queen. But I ain't got no choice. Try as I may, I just can't walk in flats.
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 am thrilled - I can't stress that enough - thrilled when I see kids getting active.
Harvey Fierstein
