Book excerpt: Hundreds of inspirational, humorous, and provocative quotations about being queer What is a queer quote? It's a reflection on love and romance, culture and art, family and friends, and the foibles and follies of life. It's an insight into not only what it means to be gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgender in our society, but what it means to be human. It's fresh, entertaining, and celebratory. Queer Quotes is a compendium of wit and wisdom from well-known historical and contemporary cultural figures-from Oscar Wilde to Rita Mae Brown, from Quentin Crisp to Sandra Bernhardt, from James Baldwin to RuPaul. Often amusing, the quotes are also thought-provoking and up-to-date, and chapters ranging from "Love and Gay Marriage" to "Out of the Closets, into the Streets" to "HIV/AIDS" to "Queer History" reflect this book's scope. Including an index as well as short biographies of all the individuals quoted, Queer Quotes is a wonderful resource and an ideal gift book.
