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

If we [gays] want to be equal under the law, we must now - as the great heroes of the Civil Rights movement of 1963 and 1964 showed us - turn our attention to the federal government.

The whole function of cities has been transformed.

The reality is that the "gayborhoods" are going away. It's because of many factors, including the internet and increased acceptance, but mostly it's the cost of housing.

The sense of urgency has almost completely vanished.

I do believe that non-violent civil disobedience is a very important and useful tactic.

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