I Pattern My Actions And Life After

I Pattern My Actions And Life After What I Want. No Two People Are Alike. You Might Admire Attributes In Others, But Use These Only As A Guide In Improving Yourself In Your Own Unique Way. I Don't Go For Carbon Copies. Individualism Is Sacred!

'handsome' Means Many Things To Many People. If People Consider Me Handsome, I Feel Flattered - And Have My Parents To Thank For It. Realistically, It Doesn't Hurt To Be Good-looking, Especially In This Business.

I Actually Feel Sorry For People Who Have A Lot Of Illusions In Their Head About What Gay Is. I Mean, I Know Some Gay People Who Are Really Wonderful People.

I Am Not A Romantic Leading Man Anymore So I Don't Need To Nurture That Public Image Anymore. I Can Talk About It Now Because I'm Not Afraid Anymore . . . When I Grew Up, Being Gay, Being Sissy Or Anything Like That, Was Verboten. I Disliked Myself Intensely And Feared This Part Of Myself Intensely, And Had To Hide It And Became 'perfect Richard, All-american Boy' As A Place To Hide.

I've Learned, I Think, To Be Able To Distinguish Between The Necessary And The Unnecessary As Far As My Limited Outside Time Is Concerned. Saying 'no' Politely Is A Necessity If One Wants To Lead Any Kind Of Stable Life.
