“I think that there's some prison factory in China somewhere where LGBT people can't come out, are living lives of desperation, and they're churning out rainbow tchotchkes for gay pride parades for people that don't even know the history of what they're wearing and waving.”— Gilbert Baker, cbc.ca
“We took the gay pride parade with 50,000 people to 500,000. Anita Bryant had the effect of galvanizing the whole gay movement. She was somebody whom everybody could hate. She was easy to hate.”— Gilbert Baker, miamiherald.com
