Truman Capote - A conversation is a dialogue, not a monologue. That's why there are so few good conversations: due to scarcity, two intelligent talkers seldom meet.

Noel Coward - My body has certainly wandered a good deal, but I have an uneasy suspicion that my mind has not wandered enough.

Gianni Versace - Don't be into trends. Don't make fashion own you, but you decide what you are, what you want to express by the way you dress and the way to live.

Michelangelo - The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low, and achieving our mark.

Quentin Crisp - Tolerance is the result not of enlightenment, but of boredom. …more…

As Easter (10-13 April) beckons, Adrian Gillan asks the Lesbian & Gay Christian Movement’s (LGCM) new chief executive, Rev Sharon Ferguson, how she aims to build on her predecessor’s work - and why it all matters in a seemingly increasingly secular age.

What would your Easter Message be to the UK’s largely secular gay community?

I read a story the other day about a father who wanted to read his magazine but his young daughter kept bothering him. In an attempt to keep her out of his hair, he tore out of his magazine a picture of the world and then tore it into a lot of little pieces. He handed her the pieces with a roll of tape and asked her to put the picture back together. He expected this task to take her quite a while and so allow him time to complete his magazine. In a few moments she was back with the picture completed - perfectly. He asked her how she'd managed to do it so quickly and she replied: “It was easy, Daddy. On the other side was a picture of Jesus and when Jesus was right, so was the world!”

The opposite of this statement is also true. When we exclude people from our world, when we discriminate against one another, then we take away from the body of Christ. Our world and Christ cannot be separated no matter how hard people try. Find Christ this Easter and your world will come together. Lesbian & Gay Christian Movement: www.lgcm.org.uk ...more...

SPENCER:THE SECRETARIAL DIARIES

He mixed with the richest and highest possible society of France (mostly in the Paris Town Houses or at the Country estates and Chateaux of his wealthy friends) and based many on his characters on real life people.

The most famous example is that the hugely rich and outrageously camp Baron Charlus was based on a similar real life person called Robert de Montesquiou. After the deaths of his parents he increasingly withdrew from social life and lived mainly in a cork-lined room in his apartment on the Boulevard Haussmann, writing mostly at night.

Marcel wasn't a great one for sexual partners but he did visit male brothels and had a brief fling with his chauffeur. His last public appearance was at the New Year's Eve ball given by the discreetly homosexual Comte de Beaumont in 1921.

His Remembrance of Things Past was number 4 of the list of the top 100 gay books compiled in the USA in 1999. In 1999 the first volume, "Swann's Way" was 13th on the list of sales by Amazon.com.uk/. His greatest achievement was undoubtedly “A la Recherche du Temps Perdu” considered by some to be the greatest novel of 20th Century ...more...
