More From Tony Kushner

In my real life, both my bosses are gay. on the 'real housewives of atlanta,' andy cohen is gay, everybody at bravo is gay - we call them the gay mafia. over at 'glee' and 'the new normal,' my boss ryan murphy is gay. on the show, my boss, played by andrew reynolds, is gay in real life. i'm surrounded by all my gay bosses.

Theologians talk about a prevenient grace that precedes grace itself and allows us to accept it. i think there must also be a prevenient courage that allows us to be brave - that is, to acknowledge that there is more beauty than our eyes can bear, that precious things have been put into our hands and to do nothing to honor them is to do great harm. and therefore, this courage allows us, as the old men said, to make ourselves useful. it allows us to be generous, which is another way of saying exactly the same thing.

I just want to be clear before we decide to do this together: i'm gay. my music is gay. my show is gay. and i love that it's gay. and i love my gay fans, and they're all going to be coming to our show. and it's going to remain gay.

I cannot prevent anyone from getting angry, or mad, or frustrated. i can only hope that they'll turn that anger and frustration and madness into something positive, so that two, three, four, five hundred will step forward, so the gay doctors will come out, the gay lawyers, the gay judges, gay bankers, gay architects i hope that every professional gay will say 'enough', come forward and tell everybody, wear a sign, let the world know. maybe that will help.

We are dealing with the best-educated generation in history. but they've got a brain dressed up with nowhere to go. science is all metaphor. in the information age, you don't teach philosophy as they did after feudalism. you perform it. if aristotle were alive today he'd have a talk show. if you don't like what you are doing, you can always pick up your needle and move to another groove. if you take the game of life seriously, if you take your nervous system seriously, if you take your sense organs seriously, if you take the energy process seriously, you must turn on, tune in, and drop out.

One time i was doing an interview for a gay magazine and halfway through the journalist found out i wasn't gay. he said, 'sorry, i can't continue the interview.' because they only had gay public figures in their magazine. i felt so crestfallen. i wanted to tell him: but i play fundraisers for gay marriage! i'd rather my kids were gay than straight!'

Sorry' he said. 'no, i'm sorry.' 'what are you sorry for?' 'rattling on like a mad old cow. i'm sorry, i'm tired, bad day, and i'm sorry for being so...boring.' 'you're not that boring.' 'i am, dex. god, i swear i bore myself.' 'well, you don't bore me.' he took her hand in his. 'you could never bore me. you're one in a million, em.

Look, it's a monster. he's walking alone. look, he's pulling something out of his pocket. he threw it on the ground. let's go see what it is. it's a black box. you open it... ok... look, it's sorrow, misery and pain. it's loneliness and longing. boy, he'll be sorry he lost these.

She was beautiful in combat. i know that’s a crazy thing to say, especially after we’d just climbed a sewage waterfall, but her gray eyes sparkled when she was fighting for her life. her face shone like a goddess’s, and believe me, i’ve seen goddesses. the way her camp half-blood beads rested against her throat—okay, sorry. got a little distracted.

I am convinced that, despite what you think of obama, i don't think obama has a person-to-person connection with people. i think people love him because of his race and feel sorry for him, object of sympathy. i think people feel he's a victim, he portrays himself as a victim of america; he gets sympathy that way.
