I Am What I Am


Opinions founded on prejudice are always sustained with the greatest of violence.
Francis Jeffrey (1773 - 1850)

It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.
Andre Gide (1869 - 1951)

It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong.
Voltaire (1694 - 1778)

The fundamentalist right, whether Christian, Muslim, Jew or Catholic will find their voices hoarse soon from raging against those of us who are gay and seeking civil equality. When their voices die, it is their hands which will be raised against us. I believe with the current administration of this country, and the intolerant speak of the Vatican and other religious organizations, that day is near at hand in America.
