Maybe just because you are "vulnerable"

"Come to me, your weary, your poor, your huddled and longing for freedom, your poor rubbish abandoned by the rich shores; come to me, you homeless Homeless and displaced people: I welcome you by this golden gate!"
- Inscription on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty
"All men are created equal, endowed by the Creator with inalienable powers! Among them are the rights to life, liberty, and The right to pursue happiness."
- From The Declaration of Independence,
again a gay-only film. Unlike in the past, I'm thankful that this movie gave me a little bit of a willingness to believe that God sometimes comes out and sees the world. But maybe it only exists in the hearts of those who are fortified for their beliefs. Most of the traditions are created by people who have stopped thinking to comfort themselves, so don't use it as a "tortoise shell" and use it to judge others, or even use children, and the real morality will disappear.
"Like drama, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, you just make a statement, you say, I'm here..." Look at our world now, even I doubt it used to be like this. "Like those black communities, those black leaders take care of the interests of those black people..." Maybe homosexuality is not a vulnerable group, just because those who refuse to "come out", then keep silent, everything is because they can't overcome themselves . This issue is not just for homosexuality, it is for anyone. Let's not lose hope!
"If I get assassinated, I want five, ten, a hundred, a thousand people to stand up, and if the bullet goes through my head, it goes through every closed cabinet door... It's not about personal interests, it's not about fame, it's not about rights, it's about our minorities, not just gays, blacks, Asians, the elderly, disabled, minorities...I know it's not about hope, but there's no hope Life will lose the meaning of living, so you, you, and you, must give people hope, must give people hope..."
HARVEY MILK is pure man!

Milk quotes

  • Harvey Milk: [First lines] This is Harvey Milk speaking on Friday November 18th. This is to be played only in the event of my death by assassination. During one of the early campaigns, I started opening my speeches with the same line and it sort of became my signature... Hello, I'm Harvey Milk, and I'm here to recruit you.

  • Harvey Milk: [Scott Smith is heading down the stairs and Harvey tries to make eye contact] Hey, hey...

    [Scott stops and looks at him]

    Harvey Milk: I'm Harvey.

    Scott Smith: Okay, Harvey...

    [smiles a little awkwardly]

    Harvey Milk: Today's my birthday.

    [Scott laughs]

    Harvey Milk: No, it actually is my birthday. At midnight.

    Scott Smith: [still smiling, a little skeptical] Really.

    Harvey Milk: And, believe it or not, I don't have any plans.

    [raises one eyebrow as he speaks]

    Harvey Milk: Some people took me out after work.

    Scott Smith: Oh, and that would be, ah, let me guess... Ma Bell or AT&T.

    Harvey Milk: The Great American Insurance Company. I'm part of that corporate establishment that, let me guess, you think is the cause of all the evil in the world from Vietnam to diaper rash.

    Scott Smith: You left out bad breath.

    Scott Smith: [Harvey covers his mouth; both start laughing] Just kidding.

    [pause]

    Harvey Milk: You're not going to let me spend my birthday all by myself, are you?

    Scott Smith: [gently teasing] Listen, Harvey, you're pretty cute, but... I don't date guys over forty.

    Harvey Milk: Well, then this is my lucky night.

    Scott Smith: Why's that?

    Harvey Milk: I'm still thirty-nine...

    [showing Scott his watch]

    Harvey Milk: It's only eleven-fifteen.

    [pauses, leans forward and kisses Scott]
