I don't have a religion because I don't like that word religion.

You'll always be two steps behind me.

If we can elect an African American as president, we can support gay marriage! Defeat prop 8! We will not give up!

I've created a very unconventional family. I have lovers who are three decades younger than me. This makes people very uncomfortable.
