Famous quotes by Harvey Fierstein:

"In London they don't like you if you're still alive."

"Time will tell us what we did and didn't do."

"The world is full of more interesting things than my voice."

"Beware of anyone who says they know. Trust me, they don't, or they wouldn't have to say they did."

"The great thing about suicide is that it's not one of those things you have to do now or you lose your chance. I mean, you can always do it later."

"Well, I always looked at Mulan as a movie about a lesbian coming out."

"Theater has to resonate in your heart in a way that movies don't."

"It's through sheer will that I can sing."

"Also, if you want to reach people, theatre is not always the best way to do it."

"Political movements always belong to the young."

"I actually pray everyday, but I don't believe in God."

"What looks absolutely fabulous in rehearsal can fall flat in front of an audience. The audience dictates what you do or don't change."

"Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself."

"Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself."

"If you deny yourself commitment, what can you do with your life?"

"I burned out on AIDS and did no AIDS work for a couple of years. I was so angry that people were still getting this disease that nobody can give you - you have to go out and get it!"

"My play Safe Sex was picked apart because critics thought it was untrue. It was a play in which no one had AIDS, but the characters talked about how it was going to change their lives."

"But actually just yesterday we raised the key of one of my songs two steps up, so my voice is obviously responding. It's a muscle, and the more you use it, the more you use it right, the more you should get out of it. So yes, I sing."

"It's a lot of fun to play someone you don't normally think of yourself as."

"I am thrilled - I can't stress that enough - thrilled when I see kids getting active."
