Text Quotes
I hope that by just being a competent member and expressing informed views on issues that aren’t related to issues of LGBT equality, Republicans see me as a general asset.  (Lgbt Quotes) There’s no question that homophobia is rampant among the world’s 1.5 billion Muslims - but that doesn’t negate the fact that there are huge groups of Muslims who have easily reconciled their faith and sexual orientation, like LGBT people in other faith communities.  (Lgbt Quotes) The executions, persecution and imprisonment of political dissidents and the LGBT community, denial of free press, elections and religious freedoms, continue to be Fidel Castro’s legacy.  (Lgbt Quotes) I’ve praised Obama’s record on same-sex equality as enthusiastically as anyone: it’s one area where his record has been impressive. I understand, and have expressed, the emotional importance for LGBT Americans of his marriage announcement as well as its political significance.  (Lgbt Quotes) Barack Obama’s decision to come out in favour of gay marriage may be a historic occasion, but it is not an isolated one. His administration has been making pro-gay noises for some time; his demographic in the upcoming election is young and educated, precisely the group that favours equality for the LGBT community.  (Lgbt Quotes) We don’t want to promote any system that treats the fact that an individual is LGBT as a personality disorder. And anything that perpetuates that perception is harmful - not only to that member of the community but the entire community.  (Lgbt Quotes) It seems to me the most important issue in the LGBT community is the right to be queer-the right to be free of the heterosexual assumption.  (Lgbt Quotes) I’m always going to support the LGBT community and equal rights for the LGBT community  (Lgbt Quotes) In a television interview, I said that diversity in our children’s books should include the adventures of disabled children, travellers and gipsies, LGBT teens, different cultures, classes, colours, religions. It shouldn’t be a token gesture, nor do such stories need to be ‘issue-based’.  (Lgbt Quotes) The issue of equal rights for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals has vexed politicians for decades. I have my own cloudy history with the issue, having supported a law in Mississippi that made it illegal for LGBT couples to adopt children. I believed at the time this was a principled position based on my faith.  (Lgbt Quotes) I’ve been an activist in the LGBT community for a long time. I think nothing’s changed, I’m just a little bit more focused on the ‘T’ now than I was on the ‘L’ or the ‘G  (Lgbt Quotes) LGBT youth face a much higher risk of violence and homelessness after being rejected by their family of origin.  (Lgbt Quotes) I care a great deal about LGBT U.S. servicemen and women being able to serve openly and honestly. Since early in my career, I’ve included realistic LGBT characters in my books. The idea that a gay Navy SEAL had to hide who he was in order to serve was a terrible one - and I made sure my readers knew that!  (Lgbt Quotes) In a lot of states LGBT people can be fired for just being gay or for just being trans. That’s totally legal.  (Lgbt Quotes) Culture is about humanizing people. You look at the African-American civil rights movement, you look at the LGBT rights movement - the culture changed before the politics did.  (Lgbt Quotes) We need to build bridges between the LGBT community and the larger immigrant community. In the end, the bigger the tent we build, the more successful we’ll be  (Lgbt Quotes) I’m hoping my presence alone in Russia will be a show of strength for the Russian LGBT community  (Lgbt Quotes) We still have gaps that are rooted in gender inequality. Certainly we have discrimination against the LGBT community  (Lgbt Quotes) There’s the continuing challenges of racism, of sexism, of discrimination against the LGBT community, of the way that we treat people as opposed to how we want to be treated  (Lgbt Quotes) I probably do the most for the gay and lesbian community, or LGBT, but I don’t have one that I focus on. I just try and kind of do a lot for different charities  (Lgbt Quotes)
