More quotes by RuPaul
There's not a long career span because you can't really make money doing drag for very long the way the system was set up for so many years.
RuPaul
Love yourself. KNOW thyself. And be mindful of your thoughts.
RuPaul
Throw a little shade when you need to.
RuPaul
Actually, it does start with you - if you want to change the world, change yourself.
RuPaul
We are born nude and everything after that is drag.
RuPaul
When I was a kid in San Diego, I would read fashion magazines and Interview magazine, and all of that really inspired me to create a persona. So by the time I moved to New York, in the early '80s, I'd learned how to create a persona, and I knew what my persona would be.

I change clothes at least three times a day. It's the only way I can justify all the shopping I do. Prada to the grocery store? Yes! Gucci to the dry cleaner's? Why not? Dolce & Gabbana to the corner deli? I insist!
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
The greatest truths in life are the ones your fellow queens are willing to tell you.
RuPaul
True wealth is having a healthy mind, body, and spirit. True wealth is having the knowledge to maneuver and navigate the mental obstacles that inhibit your ability to soar.
RuPaul
Don't be jealous of my boogie.
RuPaul
I think in times of fear and hysteria in a culture, gender experimentation as it pertains to men has to go underground because it scares people too much and it's too much for people to take on. Especially when a culture is held hostage by fear and hysteria and fundamentalism.
RuPaul
You can call me he. You can call me she. You can call me Regis and Kathie Lee I don't care! Just as long as you call me.
RuPaul
It's a sort of piss-take on culture, because a drag queen is a clown - a parody of our society. It's a sarcastic spoof on culture, which allows us to laugh at ourselves - but in a way that is inclusive of everyone.
RuPaul
Through my observations, it became clear that most of society's rules and customs are rooted in fear and superstition!
RuPaul
We're born naked, and the rest is drag.
RuPaul
It's quite simple: If someone says UR beautiful, believe them. If someone says UR ugly, don't believe them.
RuPaul
Some girls talk to the boys in the chat room, my girls talk to the boys in the backroom.
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
Sacrifices have to be made if you want to make a dent in the world, and that's what I started out to do - to make a dent in pop culture.
