Shame weighs a lot more than flesh and bone.

I married him for a green card. We had a really great, caring relationship; it just obviously wasn't right for me.

People might find me attractive, but it's also my job to prove that I can be intelligent.

And I somehow always felt less lonely when I was completely alone.

Thanks so much, everybody, for making gay marriage legal, thank you for everything you've done-I'm just going to walk through that door

My sexuality is a part of me that I really like. But it's not the totality of me.

Even when I took first prize, topped the class, won the race, I never really won anything. I was merely avoiding the embarrassment of losing.
