Gay

Famous quotes containing the word gay:

“All parents should be aware that when they mock or curse gay people, they may be mocking or cursing their own child.”

“If love the virgin’s heart invade,
How, like a moth, the simple maid
Still plays about the flame!”
—John Gay (1685–1732)

“I have lived in both worlds. And I think I prefer, to the indifferent, haphazard, money- mad hurry of the Outside World, that of my world; that sympathy and understanding grown shadowy since I have been away from it so long, still is more real to me than the world I am in now. Not only the spangles and the gay trappings made it colorful; there was an inner color that warmed the soul. And that I miss.”
—Josephine Demott Robinson (1865–1948)
