Give a drag queen a fish and you feed her for a day show her how to be fishy and you feed her for a lifetime.

My motivation comes from a love of being creative. I'm in love with music and colour and laughter and dancing and all things that are beautiful.
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
We all came into this world naked. The rest is all drag.

Illusion starts between the ears. If the person doing illusion doesn't believe it, then the audience doesn't believe it. Seeing the picture in your head will allow the audience to see it in their heads.

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.

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 feel an obligation to myself to entertain myself and if other people get something out of it, I'm like, right on.

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
I'm always talking about loving yourself and expressing yourself and learning how to love yourself. I'm still the same.
RuPaul
I'd like to go for people I admire - I always gravitate towards the people I idolized when I was a teenager: Cher, Diana Ross, and David Bowie.
RuPaul
With hair, heels, and attitude, honey, I am through the roof.

Drag queens always love a portmanteau of combining words and making something new, because this whole world is shilarious. And so you have to contain yourself with words. Shilarious is just something that is a really hooty kiki funny item.
RuPaul
When there are no words, let your eyes do the talking.
RuPaul
Very little is off -limits, but draw the line at being unkind.
RuPaul
It's quite simple: If someone says UR beautiful, believe them. If someone says UR ugly, don't believe them.
RuPaul
You are not your body. You are actually an extension of the power that created the whole universe.
RuPaul
When I was about 13, 14 - 13, I would carry a magic marker with me everywhere I went so I could write the word Bowie on everything that wasn't mine.
RuPaul
Throw a little shade when you need to.

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!
