From inspirational to just plain crazy, here are some of the more memorable quotes that have been recently made.

“[Homophobia] comes from ignorance and homophobes not being around enough gay people…I think straight men, especially in hip-hop, have this notion that a gay man is going to come and make them gay or try to have sex with them, and I always think that’s so weird. I just want to tell them, ‘Hey, they aren’t interested in you. You’re not that cute.’”
