- 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.

- [on Essa Estranha Atração (1988)] I'm happy that we made it. Is it everything I wanted it to be? Is anything ever? I fought with [director] Paul Bogart because I had based the entire third act on a song by Big Maybelle. When we went to make the movie, Paul refused to put it in the movie. We used a beautiful Ella Fitzgerald recording of "This Time the Dream's on Me", which is very pretty, but it doesn't have that emotion. But to Paul, it did. It's life. I really am a theater person. That means you put something out there, and you let it go. Tomorrow night is a new performance.

- The first time I noticed an organized group of marriage-equality protesters at the Gay Day Parade I thought, really? With lesbian and gay equality in the workplace and housing and the military eluding us, you want to fight to have a wedding? But then I noticed how young most of them were and I thought, this is your world, your future. If this is where you want your front line to be, then I'm right there with you.
