Pose S1
“The category is Live! Work! Pose!”
“Just because you have an idea does not mean you know how to properly execute it. Ideas are ingredients. Only a real mother knows how to prepare them.”
"If you don't risk anything, you risk even more."
"Balls are a gathering of people who are not welcome to gather anywhere else, a celebration of a life that the rest of the world does not deem worthy of celebration."
"I don't judge people based on how they live."

-"what are you?"
-"I'm no one. I want what I'm supposed to want, I wear what I'm supposed to wear, and I work where I'm supposed to work. I stand for nothing. I've never fought in a war and I probably won't ever have to, cause the next one's gonna kill us all. I can buy things I can't afford which means they're never really mine. I don't live. I don't believe. I accumulate. I'm a brand——a middle-class white guy. But you're who you are even though the price you pay for it is being disinvited from the rest of the world. I'm the one playing dress-up. Is it wrong to want to be with one of the few people in the world who isn't, to have one person in my life who I know is real?"

-"But what is scared to us? It's like water to a fish. There's no point in dreaming of a life without having to be scared. But you're also strong and brave. Brave enough to get up on that stage and take on all of us crazy bitches night after night. "

-"You'll always have the memories."
-"Yeah, the good and the bad."
-"Yes, ma'am. You know, that's the burden of having a parent. They haven't a clue what they're doing. And every mistake they make chips away at us. As we grow older, we got to the pieces back together. And we can blame them. But here's the thing. They're human. They make mistakes."

“You know the first thing I noticed about you? You feet don't really touch the ground when they walk. You be floating up, high above, baby girl. You know you're my angel, right? You've always been. And when I'm with you, I get to be up there for a little while. I'm always gonna stay close to the ground waiting to catch you just in case life knocks you down again, you know that?"
