Governor Romney says he's against same-sex marriage because every child deserves a mother and a father. I think every child deserves a family as loving and committed as mine... Mr. Romney, my family is just as real as yours.

Courage is knowing that you're beaten and forging ahead anyway.

Religious beliefs...should never be an excuse to treat people badly.

I think every child deserves a family as loving and committed as mine. Because the sense of family comes from the commitment we make to each other to work through the hard times so we can enjoy the good ones. It comes from the love that binds us that's what makes a family. My family is just as real as yours.

The sexual orientation of my parents has had zero effect on the content of my character.
