In itself, homosexuality is as limiting as heterosexuality: the ideal should be to be capable of loving a woman or a man; either, a human being, without feeling fear, restraint, or obligation. – Simone de Beauvoir (1908–1986)

Trust a nitwit society like this one to think that there are only two categories — fag and straight. – Gore Vidal (1925–2012)

One should no more deplore homosexuality than left-handedness. – Towards a Quaker View of Sex, 1964

As a mother, I know that homosexuals cannot biologically reproduce children; therefore, they must recruit our children. – Anita Bryant, 1977
