Rocketman Quotes

Acceptance and Isolation in Personal Identity

Elton: [on a payphone; long silence] Me and John, we-- Well, the thing is... I'm... a homosexual. A poofter... A fairy... A queen... Well, say something!
Sheila: Oh, for God's sake, I knew that. I've known for years.

Embracing Identity and Rejecting Judgment

Elton John / Reginald Dwight: [to Sheila; pause] You really are a heartless monster. You know, I don't live my life in black and white, and I do not want your fucked up frigid ideas about anything. You know, I am so sick of running away from who I am. There's nothing wrong with success or pleasure. In fact, why am I apologising for it, mum? I have fucked everything that moves. And I've taken every drug known to man, all of them. You know what?... I enjoyed every last minute of it.
