“This is a new meaning of family. It’s not a question of a man and a woman and children, which we grow up knowing as a family. It’s a question of a group of human beings in a mutual bond.”
Paris Is Burning (1990) dir. Jennie Livingston

“I always had hopes of being a big star. But as you get older, you aim a little lower. Everybody wants to make an impression, some mark upon the world. Then you think, you’ve made a mark on the world if you just get through it, and a few people remember your name. Then you’ve left a mark. You don’t have to bend the whole world. I think it’s better to just enjoy it. Pay your dues, and just enjoy it. If you shoot an arrow and it goes real high, hooray for you.”
