I'm sure there's going to be some material from This Is Not Going To Be Pretty. I usually use that song to just introduce myself to the audience, although the patter in between the song is always different.

More quotes by Harvey Fierstein
Always admit when you're wrong. You'll save thousands in therapy... and a few friendships too.
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
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
What looks absolutely fabulous in rehearsal can fall flat in front of an audience. The audience dictates what you do or don't change.
Harvey Fierstein
Well, I always looked at Mulan as a movie about a lesbian coming out.
Harvey Fierstein
It's through sheer will that I can sing.
Harvey Fierstein
A child's kiss is magic. Why else would they be so stingy with them?
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
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
Pork was in 1971, and I stopped hanging out at The Factory by like 1973.
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
You may feel powerless as a child, but the world will one day be yours. And you're responsible for it. So, seize the day and take charge of it.
Harvey Fierstein
I am thrilled - I can't stress that enough - thrilled when I see kids getting active.
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
To work all the time is to be incredibly lucky.
Harvey Fierstein
I just don't like politics. My rule is if I can put a spotlight on something, I'll do that.
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
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
CBS really wants me on TV. That's their aim. My aim is to have an all-gay sitcom someday, with heterosexuals as token guest stars. Let them be the next-door neighbors for a change.
Harvey Fierstein
I actually pray everyday, but I don't believe in God.
