QUOTABLE

“I like talking about being gay because I get so much feedback, both from artists, who think it’s important for the community, and from individuals who tell me that it’s important to them personally. I figure that for every interview, there’ll be one person somewhere for whom it will have a positive impact. Or maybe more important still, it will have an impact on the parents of some young lesbian or gay man.”

--Actor Ian McKellen, in L.A. Style.
