Sorrow is how we learn to love. Your heart isn't breaking. It hurts because it's getting larger. The larger it gets, the more love it holds.

I'm not a person who worries too much about what I've done.

I don't think there is a 'gay...

I don't think there is a 'gay lifestyle.' I think that's superficial crap, all that talk about gay culture. A couple of restaurants on Castro Street and a couple of magazines do not constitute culture. Michelangelo is culture. Virginia Woolf is culture. So let's don't confuse our terms. Wearing earrings is not culture.

I think gay people are like blondes: There're fewer of them but they have more fun.

I used to think romantic love was a neurosis shared by two, a supreme foolishness. I no longer think that. There's nothing foolish in loving anyone. Thinking you'll be loved in return is what's foolish.

For you to be successful, sacrifices must be made. It's better that they are made by others but failing that, you'll have to make them yourself.

If you're afraid to die, you're afraid to live. You can't have one without the other.

What's the point of prolonging your life if you don't enjoy it? It's your body. Do whatever you want with it. Better to wear out than rust over.

Rita Mae Brown 257 quotes

If you don't like my book, write your own. If you don't think you can write a novel, that ought to tell you something. If you think you can, do. No excuses. If you still don't like my novel, find a book you do like. Life is too short to be miserable. If you do like my novels, I commend your good taste.

My lesbianism is an act of Christian charity. All those women out there praying for a man, and I'm giving them my share.

Femininity and masculinity are social constructs. Female and male are biological. We don't have to learn to be men or women but we do have to learn to be ladies and gentlemen.

Whenever I doubt the existence of God or the Goddess, I look at horses. Only God could have made a horse.

Oppression works in such a way that it holds every person responsible for the acts of any wrongdoer of the oppressed group.

So often the truth is told with hate, and lies are told with love.

The writer's job is not to write a novel, hold it up and say, “Here I am,” but to write a novel, hold it up and say, “Here YOU are.
