Quotes from the Book

But I'll tell you what we will never be deficient of. LOVE. We love art and beauty. We love new ideas and pushing boundaries. We love fighting against corruption. We love redefining archaic rules. We love men, and women, and men who dress like women, and women who dress like men. We love tops and bottoms, and top hats, especially when worn by Marlene Dietrich, But most of all, we love each other. We care for each other. We are brothers and sisters, mentors and students, and together we are limitless and whole. The most important four-letter word in our history will always be LOVE. That's what we are fighting for. That's who we are. Love is our legacy.

My legacy isn't about living up to my past by trying to be perfect. It's about the future I'll help create by being myself. We make our own legacy.

Nonfiction is about telling the truth. Fiction is about telling your truth. Fiction is a mystery that only the author can solve. You.

My legacy isn’t about living up to my past by trying to be perfect. It’s about the future I’ll help create by being myself. We make our own legacy, don’t we?
And then I open my eyes and begin to write.
Se precisasse escolher entre dizer a verdade e magoar alguém que você ama ou manter um segredo que te consome, o que escolheria? Acho que a maioria das pessoas escolheria manter o segredo.
