Politics makes me sick.

I do not know much about politics, but I am trying to do the best I can with this administration until the time shall come for me to turn it over to somebody else.

I try not to tune in to politics until it's two or three months before the election. Till then, it's like watching preseason football.

I don't feel, finally, that my politics are entirely determined by the fact that I'm a gay man.

Artists know that diligence counts as much, if not more, as inspiration in art, as in politics, patience counts as much as revolution.
