Growing up, I decided, a long time ago, I wouldn't accept any manmade differences between human beings, differences made at somebody else's insistence or someone else's whim or convenience.

Me, as a human, I never want to take away another human being's choices or lifestyles or anything.

It had never crossed my mind that a man could think he had the right to stop me from being who I was.

There's always going to be a separate version of you that people will create, and you have no control over it.

You just can't let anything or anyone get in the way of who you are.

I can't go against my nature because I am what I am. I don't try to be anyone different to who I am.

Never think you can separate who you are from what you're doing.

I refuse to act the way someone expects me to.

One thing is clear to me: We, as human beings, must be willing to accept people who are different from ourselves.

There are no elements so diverse that they cannot be joined in the heart of a man.
