All men are created equal. Now matter how hard they try, they can never erase those words. That is what America is about.

It takes no compromise to give people their rights

If I do a good job, people won't care if I am green or have three heads.

All over the country, they're reading about me, and the story doesn't center on me being gay. It's just about a gay person who is doing his job.

We will not win our rights by staying quietly in our closets.

If a bullet should enter my brain, let that bullet destroy every closet door in the country.

Rights are won only by those who make their voices heard.
