"I have never felt the need to belong to any exclusive, self-defining or special group. I find it difficult to answer questions about "'gay life" in Hollywood when I was living and working there. There were, of course, gay cliques, but I had no close friends who belonged to any of them, and I had no desire to become involved with any of them . . . I was never ashamed, and I never felt the need to explain or apologize for my relationships to anyone."

(Farley Granger, star di Hollywood senza matrimonio di copertura; San Jose, 1º luglio 1925 – New York, 27 marzo 2011)
