"A good work ethic is not so much a concern for hard work but rather one for responsibility. There have been a great many men and women who have in fact used work or hustle or selfish ambition as an escape from real responsibility, an escape from purpose. In matters such as these, the hard worker is just as dysfunctional as the sloth."

"One is not idle because one is absorbed. There is both visible and invisible labor. To contemplate is to toil, to think is to do. The crossed arms work, the clasped hands act. The eyes upturned to Heaven are an act of creation."

"We try, when we wake, to lay the new day at God's feet; before we have finished shaving, it becomes our day and God's share in it is felt as a tribute which we must pay out of 'our own' pocket, a deduction from the time which ought, we feel, to be 'our own'. A man starts a new job with a sense of vocation and, perhaps, for the first week still keeps the discharge of the vocation as his end, taking the pleasures and pains from God's hand, as they came, as 'accidents'. But in the second week he is beginning to 'know the ropes': by the third, he has quarried out of the total job his own plan for himself within that job, and when he can pursue this he feels that he is getting no more than his rights, and when he cannot, that he is being interfered."

"We do not fall in love with the package of the person, we fall in love with the inside of a person."
Love
"I put myself on the line with my truth and my sexuality. That is my choice. My choice."
Truth
"I believe I went through a divorce. My relationship with Ellen is no less significant as a marriage than my relationship to Coley."
Marriage
"I was a bit of a big mouth my whole life. I'm a person who expresses themselves with a lot of openness."
Life
"Before, I just spewed whatever it was I thought about everything. I tend to be more contemplative now."
Thought
"To have gone through so much work to heal myself and have my mother not acknowledge in any way that she was sorry for what had happened to me, broke my heart."
Work
"It's my job, to create a fantasy."

"It's important to talk about loving yourself and looking at your tragedies and the stuff that makes you grow."

"And for anyone who ever thought that Ellen and I broke it off because of sexuality, you couldn't be more mistaken. And for anyone who thought my mother's prayers had anything to do with me marrying a man, forget it."
Mother
"I told my mother at about the seventh year of therapy that I had been abused sexually by my father, and she hung up the phone on me."
