“Some women can't say the word lesbian... even when their mouth is full of one.”
Kate Clinton
“I don't think she's a lesbian. I think she just ran out of men. [Charlotte]”

“Women who love women are Lesbians. Men, because they can only think of women in sexual terms, define Lesbian as sex between women.”
Rita Mae Brown
“I became a lesbian because of women, because women are beautiful, strong, and compassionate.”
“My lesbianism is an act of Christian charity. All those women out there praying for a man, and I'm giving them my share.”
“It's a cosmic joke that I'm a lesbian, because I understand men so well but women are a complete mystery to me.”
Lea DeLaria
“Introductions are tricky in a lesbian relationship. It's a word game. To my friends she's my lover, to strangers and family members in denial she's my roommate, to Jehovah's Witnesses at the door she's my lesbian sex slave, and to my mother she's Jewish and that's all that matters.”
