“People on a daily basis walk up to me, panic, and tell me something extremely graphic and violent about their life.”

When someone says ‘Yasss queen!’ to me, I turn around and, X-Men style, run through a wall. You’ll never hear from me again.

I think people are slowly realizing that don’t have to be looking in a mirror to enjoy something. And they’re realizing that watching a show with drag queens in it doesn’t make you gay any more then listening to rap makes you black.

I have definitely had guys walk up to me, put their arm around me, and when they walk away, my shoulder smells like taco meat.

I’m not good at anything! I can do, like, two voices.

Something ‘Drag Race’ is really good at is portraying us as artists but also human beings. And normal human beings don’t know everything. They don’t have all the answers.

The best way to create emotional or spiritual distance between me and another person is for them to come up to me and go, ‘yaassssss.’

When I’m in drag, I don’t always want to be spoken to, but I love being looked at. Nobody puts that much work into how they look to be ignored.

Dark comedy helped me survive.

I never check my bank account. I know that sounds crazy. But I don’t know how much is in there. I never know how much is in there. I have an idea – I have a bottom line – but I never look because I always make believe there’s never anything in there.

I’m very proud of my career. A lot of people get their career from the judges of ‘Drag Race’ saying they’re great. I had to go and build that reputation from the ground up.

I think being young and, like, 14, 15, you feel like a weirdo, and playing guitar with my grandpa in my grandma’s kitchen is probably my fondest memories I’ll ever have.

I listened to a lot of what my grandparents listened to: George Jones, Johnny Cash – a lot of old country singers. Patsy Cline.

Mental health and sobriety is not a straight line, and ‘Drag Race’ is a family, and we support our family members through anything.

My favorite drag queens are Tammie Brown and Katya, so I like my drag queens a little left of sanity.

I plan to publicize my breakups and profit from them like other celebrities.

I’ve always said drag queens are like Swiss Army knives. Most come from having to take $50-a-show pay and doing their own costume, wig, music and jokes.

You have to enjoy life. Always be surrounded by people that you like, people who have a nice conversation. There are so many positive things to think about.

Everything changes, even stone.

You can be playful with your life, or you can just watch your life play out. Which will you choose?

The rains of Life’s Blessings cannot gather on mountaintops of pride, but flow easily into valleys of humbleness.

Live the life you want to, do not leave it too late.

Your life is an opportunity to give the gifts that your soul wants to give.

If I had 1,000 lives, I’d give them all for China.

Life won’t wait but you and I? we’re gonna live forever.
