    There is an enormous pressure placed on gay novelists because they are the only spokespeople. The novelist\’s first obligation is to be true to his own vision, not to be some sort of common denominator or Public Relations man to all gay people. – Edmund White

    Political monopoly and economic monopoly are two sides of the same coin, two heads of the same monster. Despite all the claims to the contrary, the essential ideology of Neo-Conservatism is to preserve the status quo, with all of its injustices. Its Public Relations experts call for \”freedom and democracy\” without a framework of higher values. They fail to comprehend the need for a paradigm of justice and therefore are blind to what concerns most of the people in the world. This failure is the taproot of terrorism. – Robert Dickson Crane
