CAMP: "A cornucopia of frivolity, incongruity, theatricality, and humour." "A deadly, winking, sniggering, snuggling, chromium-plated, scent-impregnated, luminous, quivering, giggling, fruit-flavored, mincing, ice-covered heap of mother love." "The lie that tells the truth." "Ostentatious, exaggerated, affected, theatrical; effeminate or homosexual; pertaining to or characteristic of homosexuals."

Down to Eartha
"It's best if you can do things with a sense of humour and finesse."
"Whenever I walk out on a stage, I'm begging for affection."
"Just because you are different does not mean that you have to be rejected."
"I think it's fun to look at people with big diamonds. I see them in my audience all the time, with the fur coat, a woman whose hand is always out front, or the two fingers are on the cheek to show her diamond. I don't have anything against that. Money brings me happiness, but I don't need a lot of it in order to be happy. I just want what is necessary. "
"My recipe for life is not being afraid of myself, afraid of what I think or of my opinions."
