More quotes by Andy Warhol
Traveling makes time go fast. So maybe traveling in space will give people time.
Andy Warhol
You have to hang on in periods when your style isn't popular, because if it's good, it'll come back, and you'll be a recognized beauty once again.
Andy Warhol
There are beautiful sounds in rock. Very lazy, dreamlike noises. You can forget about the lyrics in most songs. Just dig the noise, and you've got your sound...We're musical primitives.
Andy Warhol
I'd asked around 10 or 15 people for suggestions. Finally one lady friend asked the right question, 'Well, what do you love most?' That's how I started painting money.
Andy Warhol
Sociological critics are waste makers.
Andy Warhol
I just do art because I’m ugly and there’s nothing else for me to do.
Andy Warhol
After being alive, the next hardest work is having sex.
Andy Warhol
...after you stop wanting things is when having them won't make you go crazy. After you stop wanting them is when you can handle having them. Or before. But never during. If you get things when you really want them, you go crazy. Everything becomes distorted when something you really want is sitting in your lap.
Andy Warhol
An artist is someone who produces things that people don't need to have but that he - for some reason - thinks it would be a good idea to give them.
Andy Warhol
My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person.
Andy Warhol
Some people look 40 when they're 40. People look the way they're supposed to look at any age.
Andy Warhol
You need to let little things that would ordinarily bore you suddenly thrill you.
Andy Warhol
If there's ever a problem, I film it and it's no longer a problem. It's a film.
Andy Warhol
So many people seem to prefer my silver-screenings of movie stars to the rest of my work. It must be the subject matter that attracts them, because my death and violence paintings are just as good.
Andy Warhol
You should always have a product that has nothing to do with who you are or what people think about you... so that you never start thinking that your product is you, or your fame or your aura.
Andy Warhol
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.
Andy Warhol
It must be hard to be a model, because you'd want to be like the photograph of you, and you can't ever look that way.
Andy Warhol
I suppose I have a really loose interpretation of 'work,' because I think that just being alive is so much work at something you don't always want to do. The machinery is always going. Even when you sleep.
Andy Warhol
Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery.
Andy Warhol
Sometimes the little times you don't think are anything while they're happening turn out to be what marks a whole period of your life.
Andy Warhol
