KEITH HARING

One time Keith arrived with his new lover Juan Rivera.....and well, I wanted to spend time with Keith, but not with Juan. I found being with Juan was a very big strain-he really had nothing to contribute.  Frankly, I thought he was dragging Keith down. I thought Keith was surrounding himself with unintelligent people-it was freaking me out. He was surrounding himself with people that were using him-for his money, for his fame, and in return were letting him look at them, or play with them.»
