Quote

I like controversy. The more controversial it gets, the more interesting it is.

I'm always told that what I say is controversial. Why is it controversial? Because I speak from a tradition that has now fallen out of favor with the dominant media in this country. And so when I say things like marriage should be between one man and one woman, I'm called a bigot.

I've always been controversial because I offer new ideas. For me to be controversial, I think this is positive.

In the old days, 'controversial' in a relationship meant same-sex or mixed races.

I think that in the blogosphere, the idea is to have the most controversial stuff up.

People like controversy because that's what sells.

Just because you say something doesn't make it controversial, and it doesn't make you a bad person.

I've never intended to be controversial, but it's very easy to be controversial in pop music because nobody ever is.

I think if I'm controversial it's not because I set out to be. It's because I've never felt comfortable being part of someone else's mainstream community.
