I'm not a person who worries too much about what I've done.
Rita Mae Brown
Image
... I distrust manifest knowledge.
Rita Mae Brown

The only merciful thing about drug abuse is the speed with which it devastates you. Alcoholics can take decades to destroy themselves and everyone they touch. The drug addict can accomplish this in a year or two. Of course, suicide is even more efficient.

I believe that we often disguise pain through ritual and it may be the only solace we have.

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.

If you're afraid to die, you're afraid to live. You can't have one without the other.
Rita Mae Brown
Image
You can love more than one person at a time, and I don't give a damn what the self-help books say.
Rita Mae Brown
Image
Seriousness is the refuge of the shallow. There are events and personal experiences that call forth seriousness but they are fewer than most of us think.
Rita Mae Brown
Image
I believe the true function of age is memory. I'm recording as fast as I can.
Rita Mae Brown
Image
Women need to feel loved and men need to feel needed.
Rita Mae Brown
Image
Sport strips away personality, letting the white bone of character shine through. Sport gives players an opportunity to know and test themselves. The great difference between sport and art is that sport, like a sonnet, forces beauty within its own system. Art, on the other hand, cyclically destroys boundaries and breaks free.

Dying's not so bad. At least I won't have to answer the telephone.
