- "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss
- "Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
- "If you believe in yourself, you can make yourself whatever you want to be." - Lea Michele
- "It takes a lot to accept yourself as you are and truly be happy with you. My advice to anyone who’s struggling with this would be to give it time and try to notice all the great qualities you possess. There are always going to be things you don’t like about yourself or reasons to compare yourself to others, but once you realize that you only get one you, it’s best to just love yourself." — Naya Rivera.
- "It's just so sad that when we've been so progressive, we've also taken so many steps backward. I'm disgusted. In a world that is so full of hatred and bigotry and war and famine? We're criticizing two people for loving each other. I think that it's devastating." - Sophia Bush on Prop 8
- "Raise your hand if you’ve spent nights crying yourself to sleep, raise your hand if you’ve felt as if you’d rather hide in bed all day than face the people that make you feel small or powerless! Raise your hand if you’ve felt as if you’d rather lie to people than tell them the truth about who you really are, because at least you wouldn’t be the victim of hateful behavior or prejudice! And raise your hand if lying feels almost as bad." - Dianna Agron
- "Reality depresses me. I need to find fantasy worlds and escape in them." - Noel Fielding
- "Sadly, we’ve gotten letters from people who explain that they love the show but hate the gay story-lines. That we shouldn’t be polluting their children’s heads. To this I’d sometimes like to sarcastically reply, would you also like us to tell them that a stork is dropping off our offspring? That the sky is purple? That it is not practical to be true to yourself, because there are mean people in this world that will make them feel wrong for being honest? That instead of embracing themselves, they should lie to the world? THEY should be the ones being untrue and unhappy?" - Dianna Agron
- "So sad to read that the New York State Senate voted down the Gay Marriage Bill. It saddens and sickens me that modern government and society has learned nothing from history but continue the vicious cycle of ignorance and intolerance whilst quoting and twisting from a bible that at its root, preaches love and understanding and equality for all. Shame on all those who judge others so harshly that they will rob them of their civil liberties. Shame on those who will attempt to strip others of their dignity and their right to walk among us as equals on this earth. Shame on those who teach our children to discriminate and hate. Shame on those who stand in government and preach about morality and the sanctimony of marriage whilst fucking around on their wives with underage girls or boys, men or women, prostitutes or rent boys. Shame on those who dare to profess an exact knowledge of what god intended marriage to be. Are they so arrogant that they believe god is in agreement with their every thought and opinion? The statistics that have emerged regarding this so called sanctity of marriage among heterosexuals aint doing much for their argument either. Please. Give me a fucking break. Love is love is love is love. And it is rare and divine. So let all of us attempt to preserve it... in any manner we can. And by all of us, I really do mean all of us... Because lord knows there's certainly not enough of it flowing around us in this life…" - Shirley Manson
- "When you're sad, you need to hear your sorrow structured into sound." - Susanna Kaysen
