~By Brandi Chastain ~
For ten years Caesar ruled with an iron hand. Then with a wooden foot, and finally with a piece of string.

~By Kathy Najimy ~
The gays like 'Project Runway' because it's a fashion, and the gays are into fashion and into design. It's a creative industry, and most of the gays are pretty creative, in general.

I just think it's a glitzy, fun show, and there are also always lots of gay boys on it, and, you know, that's fun.
~By Christian Siriano ~

~By Jesse Eisenberg ~
A lot of my friends are club people. It's not me. It's funny to represent that, because it's not me. I don't fit into a gay club setting. It's just ironic that I represent that somehow.

~By Randy Neugebauer ~
Fertile soil, level plains, easy passage across the mountains, coal, iron, and other metals imbedded in the rocks, and a stimulating climate, all shower their blessings upon man.
~By Ellsworth Huntington ~
But I think you have to - whatever the environment looks like, it does enter into people's art work one way or another; it's very remote or it isn't. It's remote in my work but it has to have a certain degree of ordinariness.
