John Lewis in 1996, speaking on DOMA. You cannot tell people
they cannot fall in love.
Edie Windsor, speaking on NPR:
"The fact is, marriage is this magic thing. I mean
forget all the financial stuff — marriage … symbolizes commitment and
love like nothing else in the world. And it’s known all over the world. I
mean, wherever you go, if you’re married, that means something to
people, and it meant a difference in feeling the next day. And I’ve
asked everybody since who gets married after long-term relationships,
‘Did it feel different the next day?’ and the answer is always ‘Yes,
absolutely.’"
Wendy Davis, on 13-hr filibuster. I hope she runs for governor.
