I Knew That I Was

I'm Really Attracted To Strong Women. Let Me Rephrase That, I'm Really Attracted To Strong Female Characters.

I Thought That If I Accomplished Enough, That Somehow I Would Be Let Off The Hook In The Future. Like I Didn’t Have To Keep Striving And Achieving Because I Had Done That Already, And It Would Add Up To Being Enough.

When I Watched Ellen Come Out In '97, My Jaw Was On The Floor. I Thought, There Are Some People Who Break The Doors Down, Hold Them Open, And Some People Who Walk Right Through.

I Didn't Choose The Fact That I Was Gay, But I Did Choose Whether To Live My Life As A Gay Woman-that Was The Terrifying Thing For Me. Especially Being A Gay Actress.

I Wondered If That's What Aging Felt Like. That Desire And Reality Were Dueling Until The Day You Die, That Nobody Every Got To A Place Of Peace. I Had Always Wanted To Get Old So I Didn't Have To Care Anymore, But I Began To Think That It Would Be Best Just To Skip The Getting Older Part And Just Die.
