Mordden on the notion of “home”:
”It’s about going home,” said Walt. “You aren’t given a home, you find one. You make one.”
…..
“Home is where your friends are,” said Elaine.
“Where your kind is,” said the Kid.
“What you fight to protect,” Elaine insisted.
…
[The Kid cried,] “Home? Going home? This is home. This is my church. This is community and truth. This is our style, our very gay life. It’s made of us, you see.”
