"Alan Turing never got to stand on a stage like this and look out at all of these disconcertingly attractive faces, and I do, and that’s the most unfair thing, I think, I’ve ever heard. So in this brief time here, what I want to use it to do is to say this - when I was sixteen years old I tried to kill myself because I felt weird, and I felt different, and I felt that I did not belong. And now I’m standing here, and I would like this moment to be for that kid out there who feels she’s weird or she’s different or she doesn’t fit in anywhere. Yes, you do, I promise you do - Stay different, and then when it’s your turn, and you’re standing on this stage, please pass the message to the next person that comes along"
- Graham Moore, receiving his first Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay, beating contenders American Sniper, The Theory Of Everything, Whiplash & Inherent Vice
