“In this world, I’ve got no choice: there is nothing left at all; and you don’t notice, but that’s all right: you don’t know what it’s like.”

I think also there was a lot of coming to terms with where I am in life, where I fit in as a gay man in America, and getting more comfortable with who I am.

…Everything you hate is everything that you created.

Like the fear of destruction keeps one from saying what they want to say – when, in actuality, by not saying it, things get worse. Because it’s the entropy, the leak that doesn’t get fixed.

I will offer a choice, not an echo.

Without ethics man has no future. This is to say mankind without them cannot be itself.

Moral choices do not depend on personal preference and private decision but on right reason and, I would add, divine order.

The decision to relax rather than to grip, even in the face of impatience or fear, is a conscious and brave choice.

Choices are easy when you have nothing to lose.

Whenever there was a choice between music and anything else, music won hands down every time.

I desire not to desire, for my will is without value, since I am ignorant in any case. Therefore choose Thou for me what thou knowest to be best and do not put my perdition in what my autonomy and free choice prefer.

Keep fighting for animals by making compassionate, cruelty-free choices every day and encouraging those around you to do the same.
