Harvey Fierstein Quotes
- Art has the power to transform, to illuminate, to educate, inspire and motivate.
- Also, if you want to reach people, theatre is not always the best way to do it.
- My play Safe Sex was picked apart because critics thought it was untrue. It was a play in which no one had AIDS, but the characters talked about how it was going to change their lives.
- What looks absolutely fabulous in rehearsal can fall flat in front of an audience. The audience dictates what you do or don't change.
- In Torch Song, I did that character almost non-stop from 1978 until I made the movie in 1987. Then I had some failure, which also colors how you react to doing other things.
