Gay Camp Sayings

#1. There's a lesbian aesthetic, just as there's gay camp, but I don't know if there's such a thing as 'lesbian art.'

Catherine Opie

#2. Ha-ha. The dumb jock who can't talk the Queen's English. I swear to God, the next person who corrects my grammar gets punched in the face.

Rick Yancey

#3. I don't think that gay and lesbian relationships are identical to heterosexual relationships. I do think that heterosexual weddings, or at least most of them, are sort of camp pantomimes about male and female sex roles, even if the couple is marrying as individuals and equals ...

Dan Savage

#4. Some say once a word is said it's dead. I say it just begins to live that day.

Emily Bronte

#5. Why is Mitt Romney not bragging: 'I covered all these people'? Why can't the Democrats sell the idea, we're trying to make you well? Is that such a hard sale?

Bill Maher

#6. I don't like bullshit and pretense.
I can't enjoy the joy at church ...
without some cash in my wallet.

Toba Beta

#7. There is a history of gay people pretending to be straight. I want to balance the sides. I'm a straight person pretending to be gay. I've had a lot of people to imitate. It's easy when you're British; we're camp by nature, anyway.

Robbie Williams

#8. Gay marriage within mainline denominations is gaining traction. Skewed pastors and even the government can't trump the Bible on this issue. Pastors: stand!

Steve Camp

#9. I fall too easily; it gives me the chance to rise more quickly. When I feel pains in my muscles, it's only a sign that they are growing.

Ufuoma Apoki

#10. A lot of what used to be known as gay culture - broadly speaking, homoeroticism and being camp - has been brought into mainstream culture. I think we should be moving to an era where it's just sex.

Neil Tennant

#11. I grew up around gay people my entire life, basically, that's possibly why I'm quite camp, and some people think I'm gay when I meet them, which I think is awesome. It's always good to keep them guessing,

Daniel Radcliffe

#12. Better not be a hero than work oneself up into heroism by shouting lies.

George Santayana

#13. I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.

Siobhan Fahey

#14. I am camp. Lots of gay men can't cope with their campness. They are in denial about it.

Graham Norton

#15. I've always thrown like a girl.

Andrea Riseborough

#16. The only thing I can give to young gay people is that when I was growing up, there were no role models that were blokey that were men. Everybody was flamboyant and camp, and I remember going, 'That's not me, so even though I think I am gay, I don't think I fit into this world.'

Russell Tovey

#17. A man's past is forever set in stone. There

Seneca.

#18. Three kinds of people get talked about: The fascinating, the freaks and the nefarious.

Donna Lynn Hope

#19. I felt very close to God ... My friends say that's because I was always on my knees.

Armistead Maupin

#20. What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear. What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer.

Joseph M. Scriven

#21. All that is beautiful can only be felt.

Lailah Gifty Akita

#22. I look up, and Jackson's eyes find mine. For a second, it almost feels like we're about to race into the hole to join you. Being buried alive has got to be better than whatever comes next.

Adam Silvera

#23. You know, Henry, we're the only people who get born into the enemy camp. I mean, black babies get born into black families, Jewish babies get born into Jewish families, but gay babies, we get born into straight families. How we survive it all is a miracle.
