Isn't who you were, who you are?
First they put away the dealers, keep our kids safe and off the street. Then they put away the prostitutes, keep married men cloistered at home. Then they shooed away the bums, then they beat and bashed the queers, turned away asylum-seekers, fed us suspicions and fears. We didn't raise our voice, we didn't make a fuss. It's funny there was no one left to notice when they came for us.
I'm a better person for knowing you, Luke.
"Don’t be too fat, or too thin, or too dark, or too light. Don’t be too sexual, or too chaste, or too smart, or too dumb.” Be yourself. But make sure you fit in.
It’s hard to let new people in sometimes. I’m used to it.
Just because someone says something doesn't make it true.
It doesn't matter. You know how high school is. Once a story gets out, it mind as well be true.
