More quotes by Andy Warhol
Space is all one space and thought is all one thought, but my mind divides its spaces into spaces into spaces and thoughts into thoughts into thoughts. Like a large condominium. Occasionally I think about the one Space and the one Thought, but usually I don't. Usually I think about my condominium.
Andy Warhol
The best museum is Bloomingdales.
Andy Warhol
I think every painting should be the same size and the same color so they're all interchangeable and nobody thinks they have a better painting or a worse painting.... Besides even when the subject is different, people want the same painting.
Andy Warhol
I'm afraid that if you look at a thing long enough, it loses all of its meaning.
Andy Warhol
I learned that you actually have more power when you shut up.
Andy Warhol
I just do art because I’m ugly and there’s nothing else for me to do.
Andy Warhol
When you work with people who misunderstand you, instead of getting transmissions, you get transmutations, and that's much more interesting in the long run.
Andy Warhol
The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.
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
What I was actually trying to do in my early movies was show how people can meet other people and what they can do and what they can say to each other. That was the whole idea: two people getting acquainted.
Andy Warhol
Just like New Yorkers themselves, the trees in New York [city] work harder than any others in the world.
Andy Warhol
If you wear a wig, everybody notices. But if you then dye the wig, people notice the dye.
Andy Warhol
Success is when the checks don’t bounce.
Andy Warhol
I'm starting to think that the men are the ones who should wear the big jewelry because they can defend it better when it's robbed. They should wear the big diamonds. You can show how much of a man you are, because the bigger the diamond, the stronger you have to be to defend it.
Andy Warhol
Everybody must have a fantasy.
Andy Warhol
My image is a statement of the symbols of the harsh, impersonal products and brash materialistic objects on which America is built today. It is a projection of everything that can be bought and sold, and practical but impermanent symbols that sustain us.
Andy Warhol
Dying is the most embarrassing thing that can ever happen to you, because someone's got to take care of all your details.
Andy Warhol
I never think that people die. They just go to department stores.
Andy Warhol
I just happen to like ordinary things. When I paint them, I don't try to make them extraordinary. I just try to paint them ordinary-ordina ry.
Andy Warhol
Beauty is a sign of intelligence.
Andy Warhol
