Jenny Offill
“For years, I kept a Post-it note above my desk. WORK NOT LOVE! was what it said. It seemed a sturdier kind of happiness.”
Jenny Offill, Dept. of Speculation

Henry Miller
“What's a fuck when what I want is love?”
Henry Miller

“What Rilke said: Surely all art is the result of one’s having been in danger, of having gone through an experience all the way to the end, to where no one can go any further.
Jenny Offill, Dept. of Speculation

Jeanette Winterson
“While I can’t have you, I long for you. I am the kind of person who would miss a train or a plane to meet you for coffee. I’d take a taxi across town to see you for ten minutes. I’d wait outside all night if I thought you would open the door in the morning. If you call me and say ‘Will you…’ my answer is ‘Yes’, before your sentence is out. I spin worlds where we could be together. I dream you. For me, imagination and desire are very close.”
Jeanette Winterson

Jenny Offill
“The only love that feels like love is the doomed kind. (Fun fact.)”
Jenny Offill, Dept. of Speculation
