| Quentin Crisp was a brave and inspirational man who entertained and always spoke his mind. The fact that he was always so forthright endeared him to meI wish I could speak my mind so openly! He will be missed by manythey dont make them like they used to. We should rejoice that we glimpsed such a witty and courageous soul. |
