"So while waiting for the coffee to make its way to the counter, I stepped over to the phone and rang up Jesse. Zoe answered ... I'm making nude photographs of Jesse. Are you coming over? I'll make photographs of you, too ...
"I laughed and said I wasn't sure, I was just sitting down to coffee, and she said Well I'm hideously depressed and so is Jesse and we're drowning in each other's sorrows, but we're doing art, I'm taking pictures, why don't you have your coffee and then come over? ...
"Look, I said hugging her. I don't understand why you people feel depressed. I've been walking around all day feeling extremely happy. I mean there's so much great stuff in living, there's so much to see and do and feel great about (I was beginning to disbelieve myself, explaining it, verbalizing it wasn't the same as feeling it, it was more personal). "

"several people who saw the series when it first came out–including Linda Benedict-Jones, the survey’s curator–have told me that they didn’t immediately get the homosexual subtext, although they could tell there was something promisingly queer, in the older sense, about the work. That means that the series itself, as a work of art, played the same game of partial signs and obfuscations that its subjects are engaging in."
