"[Robert Gottlieb] tidak akan menerbitkan 'Remembering Denny'. Denny adalah seorang Sarjana Rhodes. Dia berada di tim renang. Apakah kru California yang hebat ini memotong dan senyum yang hebat ini. Majalah Life meliput kelulusannya, dan Alfred Eisenstaedt memotretnya. Kita semua mengharapkan dia menjadi presiden suatu hari nanti. Tapi dia bunuh diri ketika dia berusia 50-an. Jika dia gay di tahun 1950-an, maka sisa dari apa yang saya tulis adalah komentar karena kehidupan begitu menyedihkan bagi pria gay saat itu. Dan itu sebabnya dia bunuh diri."

Versi Bahasa Inggris

[Robert Gottlieb] wouldn't have published 'Remembering Denny' . Denny was a Rhodes Scholar. He was on the swimming team. Had this great California crew cut and this great smile. Life magazine covered his graduation, and Alfred Eisenstaedt photographed it. We all expected him to be president some day. But he committed suicide when he was in his 50s. If he were gay in the 1950s, then the rest of what I wrote was commentary because life was so miserable for gay men back then. And that's why he committed suicide.
