Think rich, look poor.

I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own.
Andy Warhol

Fantasy love is much better than reality love. Never doing it is very exciting. The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.
Andy Warhol
Image
If I had gone ahead and died ten years ago, I'd probably be a cult figure today.
Andy Warhol

If everyone isn't beautiful, then no one is.

I had a lot of dates but I decided to stay home and dye my eyebrows.
Andy Warhol
Image
The lobbies are always the best-looking place in the hotel-you wish you could bring out a cot and sleep in them. Compared to the lobby, your room always looks like a closet.

Everyone will be famous for 15 minutes.
