'...I've got these desperate feelings that nothing means anything. And then I decide that I should try to fall in love, and that's what I'm doing now with Jon Gould, but then it's just too hard. I mean, you think about a person constantly and it's just a fantasy, it's not real, and then it gets so involved, you have to see them all the time and then it winds up that it's just a job like everything else, so I don't know. But Jon is a good person to be in love with because he has his own career, and I can develop movie ideas with him, you know? And maybe he can even convince Paramount to advertise in Interview, too. Right? So my crush on him will be good for business' (Andy Warhol, Thursday, April 16, 1981).


Andy Warhol and Jon Gould were together between the years of 1981 and 1985 during which time Jon lived with Andy during his stays in New York. According to Bob Colacello, Warhol spent a good deal of time and effort winning over Jon's affection and was desperate for his attention and love. Indeed in Jon's presence Warhol was vulnerable in a way that deviated from the distant and mechanical persona he typically employed in his life as well as his work. Due to their closeness Jon was the recipient of many gifts from Warhol including the present Endangered Species.
