Rita Mae Brown

Rita Mae Brown
I don't think there is a 'gay lifestyle.' I think that's superficial crap, all that talk about gay culture. A couple of restaurants on Castro Street and a couple of magazines do not constitute culture. Michelangelo is culture. Virginia Woolf is culture. So let's don't confuse our terms. Wearing earrings is not culture.
Rita Mae Brown
Sex is a pleasurable exercise in plumbing, but be careful or you'll get yeast in your drain tap.
Rita Mae Brown
To have meaningful work is a tremendous happiness.
Rita Mae Brown
many lesbians were so far in the closet they were in danger of being mistaken for garment bags.
Rita Mae Brown
Art is moral passion married to entertainment. Moral passion without entertainment is propaganda, and entertainment without moral passion is television.
Rita Mae Brown
I think you can judge the level of success for any group of people by the reaction against it.
