More quotes by Miranda July

Miranda July
It occurred to me that everyone’s story matters to themselves, so the more I listened, the more she wanted to talk.
Miranda July
I think because I write so many short stories, it's not that hard to come up with characters that are not me.
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
Maybe that's why people take pictures of themselves, to avoid being described.
Miranda July
But, like ivy, we grow where there is room for us.
Miranda July
I spend a lot of time obsessing about getting a dignified eight hours' sleep.
Miranda July
For a split second I felt as though she was nobody special in the larger scheme of my life. She was just some girl who had tied me to her leg to help her sink when she jumped off the bridge. Then I blinked and was in love with her again.
