The job of the artist is to point at things.
Miranda July
I wondered if i would spend the rest of my life inventing complicated ways to depress myself.
Miranda July
Thus far, everything I've made has come out of my really feeling it, out of the fire of my life.
Miranda July
It was a small thing, but it was a thing, and things have a way of either dying or growing, and it wasn’t dying.
Miranda July
I didn't have any vices before the Internet. There are a lot of cracks in the day, moments where you don't know what to do next, so you have a little hole where you look at your phone. You want something that will mean you're not alone in that moment.
Miranda July
Some people need a red carpet rolled out in front of them in order to walk forward into friendship. They can't see the tiny outstretched hands all around them, everywhere, like leaves on trees.

An erratum is a correction inserted into a book after publication. It's a nice thing to collect because you can't go after them, you just come upon them. In 25 years I've only found about 12.

I've always been terrified of getting used to something that is actually killing me-a relationship or a job. But in those cases, you can count on a friend to say something. The Internet is different, because all my friends are in the same relationship.
Miranda July
I'm totally not kidding. Life is too short. This is all too hard to do to actually be kidding about the whole thing.

What a terrible mistake to let go of something wonderful for something real.

People tend to hold on to their first impressions - that's why those first descriptions can be so important. You don't even necessarily look at people that carefully after a while you just hold on to that early impression.
Miranda July
Maybe that's why people take pictures of themselves, to avoid being described.
Miranda July
Did you ever really love her? Not really no. But me? Yes. Even though I have no pizzazz?
Miranda July
I mean obviously we're all dealing with a lot more strangers due to the web. I'd say it has more to do with the quality of interactions. When you're physically interacting with someone, it forces you to be more present and probably a little more uncomfortable. You have to tolerate being outside the comfort of your own home.
Miranda July
The word God asks a question and then answers it before there is any chance to wonder.
Miranda July
I can't imagine being invested in someone else's script.
Miranda July
When she saw my messy desk, she said she was the same way, and there was no dust on the TV, and I was easy to love. People just need a little help because they are so used to not loving. It's like scoring the clay to make another piece of clay stick to it.
Miranda July
I'm interested in what the virtues of all those things are, especially for the kind of person who's made their own world that revolves around them, like writers do. It seems especially precious.
Miranda July
I was going to die and it was taking forever.
Miranda July
I don't tally the world, asking, Would this annoy you? Would this annoy you? That's so far removed from where I'm at when I'm in the trenches struggling with how to express things that I don't fully understand myself.
