People who say that violence doesn't accomplish anything have not read history. I don't celebrate that reality, but there you have it.

Everybody will always find some way of diminishing your work, but it's all a lie!

People's lives can be transformed by the movement.

Marches work, rallies work, civil disobedience works, direct action works, voting works, writing letters works, speaking to churches and schools works, rioting works.

I don't even want to go to the Pride marches anymore. The politics have been removed almost entirely. They're just huge corporate showcases.

Even today every year we lose an awful lot of young people, teenagers, who take their own lives because they're - they are gay or transgender.

This is a terrible time to be young, I think. It's really hard.
