I always say to people, "If you share my dream, why don't we walk together?" And that's my only organizing tool.

I knew that I was gay in every bone of my body. So I did the only thing I could do. I started the movement.

Give yourself permission to enjoy being gay. You do have to give yourself permission. You have been told you may not. Give yourself permission to be free.

I condemn the national gay press for its emphasis on consumerism.

I've always felt I carried a golden secret, a wonderful secret. Every time I thought about it, it made me feel warm inside and good.

When we begin to love and respect Great Mother Nature's gift to us of gayness, we'll discover that the bondage of our childhood and adolescence in the trials and tribulations of neitherness was actually an apprenticeship for teaching her children new cutting edges of consciousness and social change.

The assimilationist movement is running us into the ground.
