It's great not to be a collector.

The mystery was gone but the amazement was just starting.

I can never get over when you're on the beach how beautiful the sand looks and the water washes it away and straightens it up and the trees and the grass all look great. I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own.

In the early days of film, fans used to idolize a whole star - they would take one star and love everything about that star ... Today people can idolize a star in one area and forget about him in another. A big rock star might sell millions and millions of records, but then if he makes a bad movie ... forget it.

People are always calling me a mirror and if a mirror looks into a mirror, what is there to see?
Andy Warhol

Exposure and attention make a work famous - the more you talk about it, the more attention it gets, the more validity it achieves.

If I had gone ahead and died ten years ago, I'd probably be a cult figure today.
Andy Warhol
Image
Maybe the reason my memory is so bad is that I always do at least two things at once. It's easier to forget something you only half-did or quarter did.
