Top Queer As Folks Quotes

Queer As Folks Quotes By H.P. Lovecraft

John Whately lived about a mile from town,
Up where the hills began to huddle thick;
We never thought his wits were very quick,
Seeing the way he let his farm run down.
He used to waste his time on some queer books
He'd found around the attic of his place,
Till funny lines got creased into his face,
And folks all said they didn't like his looks.
When he began those night-howls we declared
He'd better be locked up away from harm,
So three men from the Aylesbury town farm
Went for him - but came back alone and scared.
They'd found him talking to two crouching things
That at their step flew off on great black wings. — H.P. Lovecraft

Queer As Folks Quotes By Jonathan Hull

I've always hated Mondays, the whole lot of them. Too much whiplash, snapping the tired masses to attention. God's way, perhaps, of reminding us that we are not masters of our fate, no matter how deluded we became during the weekend respite. — Jonathan Hull

Queer As Folks Quotes By William Faulkner

I see all the while how folks could say he was queer, but that was the very reason couldn't nobody hold it personal. It was like he was outside of it too, same as you, and getting mad at it would be kind of like getting mad at a mud-puddle that splashed you when you stepped in it. — William Faulkner

Queer As Folks Quotes By D. M. McGowan

They think they're runnin' the country but all they're doin' is writin' the reports." From Homesteader; Finding Sharon by D.M. McGowan — D. M. McGowan

Queer As Folks Quotes By Bell Hooks

But artists aren't the only marginalized folks controlling real estate. Think about the colonizing role that wealthy white gay men have played in communities of color; they're often the first group to gentrify poor and working-class neighborhoods. Harlem is a good example. Gays have moved in and driven up rents, as have renegade young white students, who want to be cool and hip. This is colonization, post-colonial-style. After all, the people who are "sent back" to recover the territory are always those who don't mind associating with the colored people! And it's a double bind, because some of these people could be allies. Some gay white men are proactive about racism, even while being entrepreneurial. But in the end, they take spaces, redo them, sell them for a certain amount of money, while the people who have been there are displaced. And in some cases, the people of color who are there are perceived as enemies by white newcomers. — Bell Hooks

Queer As Folks Quotes By Dan Miller

The loss of a job may be the wake up-call needed to redeem the fire of your genius. — Dan Miller

Queer As Folks Quotes By Bill Buford

It could be Paris. It could be Rio de Janeiro. It could be anywhere but home: someplace, anyplace, disorienting enough to make him notice what he wouldn't otherwise see. (The medicinal benefits of disorientation can never be overestimated.) — Bill Buford

Queer As Folks Quotes By Eve Langlais

Isn't it obvious?" She was a freak of nature, a monster like Joey, just less inclined to killing people. "Um, no. I mean, sure you were a tad more ferocious looking than Bambi, what with the red eyes, giant hoofs and your somewhat larger than normal size, but, hey, at least you didn't have an extra tail or something." "But I have antlers!" He — Eve Langlais

Queer As Folks Quotes By Robin McKinley

Little John: I would come too. He might want knocking in a stream to cool his anger.
Much: I will come too, to fish him out again, and to reassure him that not all of us have this queer craving for hurling folks in water. — Robin McKinley

Queer As Folks Quotes By Glenn Beck

Late 2011, the U.S. Department of Education made a historic change to the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act to allow schools to release student records to third-party organizations without parental consent. — Glenn Beck

Queer As Folks Quotes By Malcolm X

When the thing is finally sparked, the white man is not there - he's gone. The merchant is not there, the landlord is not there, the one they consider to be the enemy isn't there. So, they knock at his property. This is what makes them knock down the store windows and set fire to things, and things of that sort. — Malcolm X
