I don't think there is a 'gay lifestyle.' I think that's superficial crap, all that talk about gay culture.

Wearing earrings is not culture.

Rita Mae Brown
Every action is either strong or weak, and when every action is strong we are successful.
Rita Mae Brown
Possession of a secret is no guarantee of its truth.
Rita Mae Brown
I earned two Emmy nominations for writing, and two of the shows I had written were nominated for best in their category.
Rita Mae Brown
Any woman whose I.Q. hovers above her body temperature must be a feminist.
