I was different and people made fun of me.

There are two things that I put my focus on. One is the fight against AIDS and finding a cure. The other is human rights.

You know, gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender - people are people.

I wish we lived in a society that made it safe and provided the courage for everyone to come out.

I loved my role on Who's the Boss? There is always some of me in every character that I play.

My weight went up and down like a yo-yo.

You have to find the peace and patience within yourself to be a model and an example to others and not judge.

We all have our own closets to come out of.

To me, celebrity doesn't mean a whole lot unless you're willing to use it. So I wanted to use it in a different way, with my AIDS work, the human rights stuff for the gay and lesbian community and the speaking I do.

If you want to be a star, don't bother doing it because it ends up being very empty.

You really have to listen to yourself and know if what someone is saying is true for you.

It frustrates me about myself when I see I'm not taking the road that demands more of me.

But celebrity really doesn't mean anything unless you use it for finding some way to give back and I've always felt that way.

Women don't realize how powerful they are.

The gay community just recognizes what their closets are and we straight have to spend years trying to figure out which closet we are trapped in.

I couldn't care less if someone is gay or straight.

I love being able to make people laugh.

When I became of service to other people I stopped worrying about my weight so much.

It makes me so angry - there's enough food in the world but people are starving. It's all political.

People can only do what they are ready to do when they are ready to do it.

I've always felt that celebrity was wonderful for a lot of the perks that it could give you.

Exactly Straight women who surround themselves only with gay men or white people who refuse any other race into their circles are unhealthy and it has more to do with one's individual fear and individual closets.

I know what it feels like to be an outsider.

The more we can purge ourselves of the diseases we create the more we can become magnificent people.

I was different and people made fun of me.

I got into theatre very early, so yes I was surrounded by gay people quite early and frequently.

Bigotry or prejudice in any form is more than a problem; it is a deep-seated evil within our society.

The message of transformation and how we all can live from our heart, not just from our head, was a very important message for me to learn in my own life.

Yet I've discovered that how I look is not a function of anything as ephemeral as my hair.

Somewhere we turn ourselves into victims instead of being the powerful women we really are meant to be.

I learned so much from Tony Danza I learned so much about myself.

I found that the body, mind and spirit are all connected. They are not separate pieces.

Bigotry or prejudice in any form is more than a problem it is a deep seated evil within our society.

You know gay lesbian bisexual transgender people are people.

The more we can purge ourselves of these diseases we create, the more we can become magnificent people.

We dominated Survivor - there is no way we would not dominate that, too. I can see it already, us making deals with people. That's the best part, and with the Race, it would be even more fun because I've got a lot of tricks up my sleeve.

If you want something that's going to provide you with a lot of challenges and a variety of different things to do, then you really can't beat a place like the Air Force. I don't mean this to sound like a recruiting pitch. But it's been a lot of fun.

About the only time losing is more fun than winning is when you're fighting temptation.

I'm definitely not ready to move into something else. I'm having so much fun.

I am a very open, social, friendly person, and when it comes to people approaching me and asking for an autograph, I am totally cool with doing any of that. It's a lot of fun.

I am playing with the assumptions that we have in our everyday life when we are tripped up or fooled and we learn something, that makes things exciting - I am having fun with that stuff, but you have to manage it so it doesn't get too cute, that's what I trying to work toward.

The idea of licking stamps seemed great fun for me.

If you watch a game, it's fun. If you play it, it's recreation. If you work at it, it's golf.

I like doing them and they're ridiculous and the actors can improvise a lot, and they don't have to be really realistic characters that hit a very specific tone as in a feature film. They're really fun, I want to make more of them definitely.

We thought it would be fun to try to design a show that would work well internationally and so that' s what we're intending to do with Fraggle Rock, and we are indeed now selling it around the world.

Drums just always sounded like the most fun part of that good music for me.

What we're doing is fun - if you have any sense of humor at all!

We see less of Dave, certainly, and he's kind of fallen out of the sphere of our group, mostly because he's working on his show, and has kind of lost the fun of the party.

When they were small and my wife really had no other responsibilities, except taking care of the family and all of us, it wasn't that big a deal. It was fun. Hey, we're going to Moscow. We're going to Italy. We're going to Toronto. We're going to New York.
