More quotes by RuPaul
It's very easy for me to take on other people's energy, so my personal mantra is Love yourself, love yourself, love yourself.
RuPaul
The overall commentary on what I'm doing is saying, 'Hey look! I get to create whatever persona I want to, and it's all up to me. And the truth is, we are all - basically the universe - pretending to be humans for a brief moment of time. With a little self-induced amnesia.
RuPaul
Ego loves identity. Drag mocks identity. Ego hates drag
RuPaul
I'm always game for everything. What people don't understand is that the networks are who you have to get to take a chance on you. I wanna do it all. The trick is convincing a network to do it with you.
RuPaul
To this day it cracks me up to think that my debut on national British television as a reporter ends with me turning a trick.
RuPaul
I'm always talking about loving yourself and expressing yourself and learning how to love yourself. I'm still the same.

There's really no way to fast-track someone because the rate that their brain is able to interpret the information they're getting is on pace with life.

The world we live in is made up of polar opposites, black/white, male/female, night/day, and a human being who possesses both masculine and feminine – vulnerability and strength – is intriguing to us, whether they be a singer or actor or dancer, intrigues us, because THAT Is who we really are.
RuPaul
Don't take life too seriously and have fun. Don't waste your time on things that your ego will try and convince you are important.
RuPaul
I love David Bowie and Cher and Diana Ross. I wanted to follow in their footsteps. So I set out to do that in a rock-'n'-roll band in Atlanta, Georgia. That led me to nightclubs and to the sort of Andy Warhol experience of creating a personality.
RuPaul
It's important to use a stage name so that your real name doesn't appear on public records.
RuPaul
Our ego never wants to die and it will do anything to prolong its life. But the truth is, we are both spirit and ego and you have to have a balance between the two. Your spirit never dies, but the ego is all about beginnings and ends.
RuPaul
You are not your body. You are actually an extension of the power that created the whole universe.
RuPaul
Negativity is basically laziness.
RuPaul
The truth of who we are has nothing to do with religion or the type of car that we drive or the color of our skin. We are spiritual beings having a human experience. And the human experience part is very temporary. So, things like the bar, love, magic, dancing, and colors are there to remind us to not take all of this stuff so seriously.
RuPaul
Throw a little shade when you need to.
RuPaul
Don't be jealous of my boogie.
RuPaul
Love yourself. KNOW thyself. And be mindful of your thoughts.
RuPaul
It's been important to cultures throughout history with the court jester and the witch doctor and the shaman - all preach the same thing.
RuPaul
Our bodies are just temporary vessels for our souls, which will go on forever. You really are an extension of the power that created the whole universe, no matter what drags you have on.
