Quotes 

• Darius : Who's Martha Stewart?

  Sterling : She writes picture books about gracious living. Martha says that nothing else matters if you can do a nice dried floral arrangement. I worship her.

  Darius : And, um, who's Ann Miller?

  Sterling : Leave this house.

• Jeffrey : I just hate that gay role models are supposed to be just like straight people. As if even straight people are like that!

  Sterling : That is so true! I was watching these two guys on Nightline on Gay Pride Day, and one of them said "Hi. I'm Bob Wheeler, I'm an attorney. And this is my lover, and he's a surgeon. And we would like to show America that all gays are not limp-wristed, screaming queens. There are gay truck drivers and gay cops and gay lumberjacks," and I just thought, "Ooh! Get her!"

• Jeffrey : But Darius is a dancer. He's in "Cats."

  Sterling : Exactly. I said you needed a boyfriend, not a person.

• Sterling : You know, Darius once said you were the saddest person he knew.

  Jeffrey : Why did he say that?

  Sterling : Because he was sick. He had a fatal disease. And he was a million times happier than you.

• Skip Winkley : Who is your biggest sexual fantasy?

  Barney's Waiter : [wipes the side of his mouth seductively]  Den-ZEL Washington.

  Jeffrey : The guy at the gym.

  Sterling : Yoko Ono.

  [everyone looks at Sterling with a suprised look] 

  Sterling : To see the apartment!

• Darius : I love the Nutcracker. You know when I was a kid I was always afraid of the dancing mice. Now I'm a cat.

  Sterling : His therapist is ecstatic.

• TV Reporter : So what happens after today's parade?

  Sterling : Angelique is going to remove her penis!

  Mrs. Marcangelo : It's coming *right* off!

• [Regarding his brush with Mother Theresa] 

  Jeffrey : She looked good.

  Sterling : Please, she's had work done.

• Sterling : [putting on a red shawl]  Can I do this, or will I look like some sort of gay superhero?

• Sterling : Two cappuccinos. Thank you, darling. Big kiss. The earring - fun... last year.

• Barney's Waiter : BI-SEXUAL!

  Sterling : Oh, me too...

• Jeffrey : I'm working an AIDS memorial. Another one. Curator for the Met. The usual assortment of people. His straight brother. His doctor. His gorgeous Italian boyfriend.

  Jeffrey : [suddenly dawns on him]  Oh my God. I'm so disgusting. You know what I'm doing? I'm cruising a memorial!

  Sterling : Oh please. We all are. It's not that we're that we're not sad, it's just there's all these guys here.
