What a terrible mistake to let go of something wonderful for something real.
Miranda July
We humans are here because nothing can be perfect. There always have to be some living things that are unsatisfied, itchy, trying too hard. If it was all just animals and rocks and lettuce, the gods wouldn't feel like they had enough to do.
Miranda July
That day I carried the dream around like a full glass of water, moving gracefully so I would not lose any of it.
Miranda July
I can guarantee you nothing I do is a conscious attempt to inject something in.

I think titles are tricky because they're like a really short ad for the book. And like an ad, they should open the door in a way that might be more accessible than the book itself.

If there were a map of the solar system, but instead of stars it showed people and their degrees of separation, my star would be the one you had to travel the most light-years from to get to his. You would die getting to him.
Miranda July
You always feel like you are the only one in the world, like everyone else is crazy for each other, but it's not true. Generally, people don't like each other very much. And that goes for friends, too.
Miranda July
Life is just this way, broken, and I am crazy to hope for something else.
Miranda July
Did you ever really love her? Not really no. But me? Yes. Even though I have no pizzazz?
Miranda July
The job of the artist is to point at things.
Miranda July
In my paranoid world every storekeeper thinks I’m stealing, every man thinks I’m a prostitute or a lesbian, every woman thinks I’m a lesbian or arrogant, and every child and animal sees the real me and it is evil.
Miranda July
There was nothing in this world that was not a con, suddenly I understood this. Nothing really mattered, and nothing could be lost.
Miranda July
We really wanted to know all the unknowable things about each other and how we were the same and how we were different, if we even were, maybe nobody is.
Miranda July
As a woman filmmaker it's pretty important that you have some basis of confidence that you're coming from, because, as I got closer to LA, there's less and less women. There's less and less mirrors for who you are.
Miranda July
He seemed to be waiting for me to move forward. Weren't we all.
Miranda July
People tend to stick to their own size group because it's easier on the neck. Unless they are romantically involved, in which case the size difference is sexy. It means: I am willing to go the distance for you.

I had a joint once and I didn't feel right for a whole year
