I have a lot of faith in President Obama. The thing that seems to be true of him is that he doesn't speak when you would expect him to speak. He's very measured in his response to things. He likes to get all the facts first before he shoots his mouth off. It makes me crazy; it makes a lot of people crazy.

Harvey FiersteinWhen a politician like Marco Rubio is willing to sacrifice his career defining immigration reform legislation solely to insure that gays and lesbians are denied equal protection under the law, we have to admit that weโre under attack. This is not pragmatic politics at work. These are the policies of bias, exclusion and unfairness.
Harvey FiersteinI was exposed to a mix of cultures, lots of different religions and beliefs. I was a spiritual kid and went to Indian powwows and Buddhist temples. But over a period of time, with reading and thinking, I started to feel it was all so absurd: The whole idea of life after death is ridiculous.
Harvey FiersteinPlease, people, do not f- with depression. It's merciless. All it wants is to get you in a room alone and kill you. Take care of yourself.
