More quotes by 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
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
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
No one wants a cherry pie that bites back.
RuPaul
Be yourself. Know your proportions. And have a good tailor.
RuPaul
Look at me - a big old black man under all of this makeup, and if I can look beautiful, so can you.
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
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
I love to laugh, I love color, I love texture, and I love creativity, so I was always inspired by people who incorporate those things in their work.
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'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
The truth is - most things are probably gonna fail. But my failures bring me to the next thing. So in that regard, nothing's a failure, it's a continuation.
RuPaul
Style is a celebratory expression of your life force. You must approach it with a sense of joie de vivre.
RuPaul
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.
RuPaul
Excuses are for losers, and winning is for winners, like you!
RuPaul
I'm always talking about loving yourself and expressing yourself and learning how to love yourself. I'm still the same.
RuPaul
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.
RuPaul
It's all about knowing that everybody that you see, everybody that you sit across from is a different aspect of yourself. So once you can accept yourself on every level, that's when everything opens up, that's when the party really begins.
RuPaul
You are not your body. You are actually an extension of the power that created the whole universe.
RuPaul
I always felt like an outer-space alien. I was always breaking the fourth wall.
