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.

Harvey Fierstein
In London they don't like you if you're still alive.
Harvey Fierstein
