"Some changes happen deep down inside of you. And the truth is, only you know about them. Maybe that’s the way it’s supposed to be."

To the man standing on the corner holding a sign that said “God hates gays,” I bet your God would have made Eve without a mouth and taught her how to spread her legs like a magazine that she will never ever ever be pretty enough to be in.
Sooner or later, you will realize that you are praying to your own shadow. That you are standing in front of mirrors and worshipping your own reflection.
Your God stole my God’s identity and I bet he’s been buying pieces of Heaven on eBay. The next time you bend your knees, the next time you bow your head, I want you to tell your God… that my God is looking for him.

"I read once, which I loved so much, that this great physicist who won a Nobel Prize said that every day when he got home, his dad asked him not what he learned in school but his dad said, ‘Did you ask any great questions today?’ And I always thought, what a beautiful way to educate kids that we’re excited by their questions, not by our answers and whether they can repeat our answers."

"It’s not my job to make you a better man and I don’t give a shit if I’ve made you a better man. It’s not a fucking woman’s job to be consumed and invaded and spat out so that some fucking man can evolve."

"When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’ To this day, especially in times of disaster, I remember my mother’s words and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers — so many caring people in this world."
