Sharon Needles. Did I meet you at the free clinic?
RuPaul
I can always sniff out when someone is being what they think I want them to be, which is the complete opposite. I really want a queen to be herself.
RuPaul
Ego loves identity. Drag mocks identity. Ego hates drag
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
We as gay people get to choose our family and the people we're around. I am your family. We are a family here.
RuPaul
I feel an obligation to myself to entertain myself and if other people get something out of it, I'm like, right on.
RuPaul
American culture is one that is so easily in denial. We have such a strange dichotomy, so hypocritical. The truth can be blaring in neon letters but our culture will find a reason not to hear what the truth is.
RuPaul
It's important to use a stage name so that your real name doesn't appear on public records.
RuPaul
Negativity is basically laziness. It takes a lot of hard work to remain positive, but positivity always pays off.
RuPaul
You are not your body. You are actually an extension of the power that created the whole universe.

Negativity is basically laziness.
RuPaul
I always felt like an outer-space alien. I was always breaking the fourth wall.
RuPaul
Even when I was down, I treated myself as a star and eventually the world would catch up.
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
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.
RuPaul
What other people think of me is not my business. What I do is what I do. How people see me doesn't change what I decide to do. I don't choose projects so people don't see me as one thing or another. I choose projects that excite me. I think the problem is that people refuse to understand what drag is outside of their own belief system.
RuPaul
We all came into this world naked. The rest is all drag.
RuPaul
We are all illusionists and that's why we are attracted to drag queens. This whole world is an illusion. It's not real.
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
As a kid, I was searching for my tribe of other people who saw through the matrix. Even as a kid I could never buy into the status quo. I just thought it was a joke I couldn't believe other people weren't laughing at it.
