T-Z Subjects: A-B C-E F-L M-Z Crisp, Quentin (1908-1999) page: Actor, writer, performance artist, and wit Quentin Crisp described himself as "one of the stately homos of England" and "not merely a self-confessed homosexual, but a self-evident one." He became a celebrity in England as a result of his extraordinary autobiography, The Naked Civil Servant (1968), and a celebrity in the United States when its dramatization as a television movie starring John Hurt was broadcast in New York in 1976. Crisp was born Denis Charles Pratt on December 25, 1908, the youngest of four children of a solicitor and a nursery governess. He was educated at a minor public school in Staffordshire and then took art courses at Battersea Polytechnic and High Whitcomb. Sponsor Message. As a young man in London he supported himself in a variety of ways, including designing book covers, freelancing as a commercial artist, and occasionally working as a prostitute and a tap-dancing teacher. During World War II, exempt from military service because of his open homosexuality, he was employed by a government-funded art school as a nude model. Hence, he became a "naked civil servant," as he entitled his autobiography. Because his homosexuality was so self-evident, as epitomized by his effeminacy, hennaed hair, long fingernails, and make-up, Crisp not only became a London "character" in the 1930s and 1940s, but frequently aroused the anger of total strangers, who sometimes attacked him physically, beating and spitting upon him, simply for being who he was.

His books are funny, but they are also often penetrating. He himself was unfailingly gracious, but often also relentless in exposing the absurdities and injustices of English and American social mores. Sponsor Message. If The Naked Civil Servant chronicles the mistreatment and pain (both borne with a stiff upper lip) of his youth in England, his later books stress the contentment he found in America, where life is presented as a comedy of manners. Crisp also gained fame in his old age as an actor. He appeared as himself in a number of documentary films, including Resident Alien Naked in New York (1994), and

Quentin Crisp Q U O T E S T O I N S P I R E Y O U Great quotes to inspire, empower and motivate you to live the life of your dreams and become the person you've always wanted to be! Control T he consuming desire of most human beings is deliberately to plant their whole life in the hands of some other person. I would describe this method of searching for happiness as immature. Development of character consists solely in moving toward self-sufficiency. Family I f Mr. Vincent Price were to be co-starred with Miss Bette Davis in a story by Mr. Edgar Allan Poe directed by Mr. Roger Corman, it could not fully express the pent-up violence and depravity of a single day in the life of the average family. Love L ove is the extra effort we make in our dealings with those whom we do not like and once you understand that, you understand all. This idea that love overtakes you is nonsense. This is but a polite manifestation of sex. To love another you have to undertake some fragment of their destiny. Prejudice I t is not the simple statement of facts that ushers in freedom; it is the constant repetition of them that has this liberating effect. Tolerance is the result not of enlightenment, but of boredom. Rewards V ice is its own reward. It is virtue which, if it is to be marketed with consumer appeal, must carry Green Shield stamps.

Member of the Internet Link Exchange ABOUT QUENTIN CRISP SINGLE CASK MALT SCOTCH WHISKY When we asked Quentin Crisp to put his name to our new Scotch Whisky we realised that we were the first company to go one step further than marketing existing brands of Scotch to the Gay community. Our product is bottled specifically for the Gay community. Robert Burns the famous Scottish poet wrote " Freedom and whisky gang thegither " which is Scots for freedom and whisky go together. Quentin in his own way courageously pursued the freedom to exist on his own terms and that is why we asked him to become involved with our product. The whisky is filtered and bottled straight from the cask in which it was matured. Unlike most processes which involve dilution to ensure uniformity over millions of bottles, ours guarantees that the 200 or so bottles from each cask are subtly different from those from another cask. We bottle at a typical strength of 58% alcohol by volume, 118% American proof. Don't let the strength put you off. Drink it neat (as Quentin does), with water, with soda or as a cocktail ingredient. You won't be disappointed. This Scotch is smooth. Each label bears the number of the cask from which the whisky was bottled and if you are a bit of a sleuth you might be able to work out from which distillery the whisky came.
