| Quotes |
Gorham Munson:
Hart, forgive me for saying this. But you want to speak for America. Hart Crane: Yeah. Gorham Munson: Does it matter that you're queer? Hart Crane: [Annoyed, rolls eyes] Whitman was queer. That's why he could love *all* of America. The roustabouts. The slaves. The, the soldiers he nursed in the Civil War. Gorham Munson: So you will expose yourself? Hart Crane: It's funny, considering my truckdriver left me. No. People can know everything about us when we're dead. But for now, it's better to keep quiet. For father's sake. Gorham Munson: [sarcastically] Right. You wouldn't want to lose that tremendous job for the sake of some queer affirmation. See more » |
