Aaron Davis When I first came to Los Angeles, it looked like just this mass of dots, all jumbled and disconnected. ...It was pretty disorienting.

7 quotes Aaron Davis Aaron Davis Look at yourself. You're so pretty and colorful on the outside, but inside you're nothing but fluff. You're like a walking, talking marshmallow Peep!
Aaron Davis I can't believe what I was about to do, when there is nothing, Christian, nothing about you that is not skin-deep.
Aaron Davis When I was a little kid, I use to put my face right up to them, you know, um, and I was just amazed because it was just this mass of dots, I think life is like that sometimes. But I like to think that, from God's perspective, life, everything - even this... it makes sense. It's not just dots. And instead we're all connected, and it's beautiful and it's funny and it's good. From this close we, we can't expect it to make sense, right now.
Aaron Davis We're colours and whites - we don't mix.
Aaron Davis [confronting his mother]
What if it's not something I've done? What if it's who I am?

Elder Farron Davis
As president of the Pocatello stake it is my unhappy duty and obligation to convene this church court on behalf of the Elder Aaron Davis for the grave and grievous sin, of homosexuality. In the light of your abnormal and abominable state and your refusal to see you have been duped into a hogwash alternative lifestyle...I wish my shame was enough for both of us. Not to mention the shame you brought to this church...our family...our ancestors...
Aaron Wait a minute, our ancestors? Dad, your grandfather had half a dozen wives, and the same goes for every single person in this room. I'd say we were the original definition of 'alternative lifestyle.'
Elder Farron Davis
Are you calling us hypocrites?
Aaron No, we've gone way beyond hypocrisy, Dad, now we're just being mean.
Aaron After we, after we met, I was sent home and excommunicated from my church... for being gay.
Lila Your church doesn't like alcohol or homosexuals. Hmm... Well, I definitely won't be joining. Can't imagine heaven without both.
