“Trixie Mattel is a product of bad things that happened to me, and it’s how I deal with things. It’s wonderful.”

Katya and I, as a yin and a yang, we pretty much represent the entire, full gambit of talent, you know? Together, there’s not really much we can’t do.

I love John Denver. Townes Van Zandt is one of my all-time favorites.

I want to look otherworldly, like I was made in a factory.

Bad things can happen to you, but it doesn’t mean you have to have regrets. It’s all about what you do with it.

One of my trophies of ‘Drag Race’ is getting to meet Katya.

Drag will always find a way to be weird.

I’m strange! I have a weird sense of humor! I look crazy!

I don’t really like club music or hip hop or electronic music at all. I’m like an old person.

I live in reality, and I know at any moment I could stop getting the phone calls and nobody wants to hear me sing or tell jokes anymore.

Most drag queens, they put on music like it’s a costume. It’s not in their bones. It’s not in their background.

I guess I just believe in Trixie Mattel, and I believe in the work. I don’t think I’m better than anybody else, but I really think that I’m hilarious and beautiful.

I don’t think gay guys are in touch with how many fabulous divas we have that actually play their own instruments and write their own music, too.

Whatever is underneath all the drag, it actually doesn’t really matter. It kind of just matters, are you a great entertainer? And are you nice to work with? Are you good at your job?

I love that drag is a way for people to vacation in the gay nightlife, but… it’s quite a different experience to perform for a gay audience than a straight audience.

That’s something I like about drag – I get to do everything. Collaborative arts are hard for me because I don’t really like to relinquish control.

What white woman, however lonely, was ever captive or insulted by me? Yet they say I am a bad Indian.

I do believe that every person has an equal opportunity to be a good and wise judge regardless of their background or life experiences.

Mister, I’ve been in a really bad mood for the last few years, so I’d appreciate it if you’d just leave me alone.

Endeavor to have always in your hand a pious book, that with this shield you may defend yourself against bad thoughts.

If you start out looking at somebody, wondering whether he’s good or bad, I think you’re starting out in the wrong direction. I think we’re all good and we’re all bad.

Hollywood is Hollywood. There’s nothing you can say about it that isn’t true, good or bad. And if you get into it, you have no right to be bitter — you’re the one who sat down, and joined the game.

There is an old saying “well begun is half done”-’tis a bad one. I would use instead-Not begun at all ’til half done.

Nobody gets justice. People only get good luck or bad luck.
