More quotes by Andy Warhol
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.
Andy Warhol
Voyeurism is a director's job description. It's an artist's, too.
Andy Warhol
Success is what sells.
Andy Warhol
If there's ever a problem, I film it and it's no longer a problem. It's a film.
Andy Warhol
I really like to work a lot. It makes time go by fast.
Andy Warhol
The President has so much good publicity potential that hasn't been exploited. He should just sit down one day and make a list of all the things that people are embarrassed to do that they shouldn't be embarrassed to do, and then do them all on television.
Andy Warhol
When the Woolworth's-Hot-Fudge-Sundae switch goes on, then I know I really have something.
Andy Warhol
I like church. It's empty when I go. I walk around. There are so many beautiful Catholic churches in New York.
Andy Warhol
The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.
Andy Warhol
I always like to see if the art across the street is better than mine.
Andy Warhol
I really believe in empty spaces, although, as an artist, I make a lot of junk. Empty space is never-wasted space. Wasted space is any space that has art in it. An artist is somebody 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
So many people have so many problems. When you think that health is wealth, you're so grateful just to be normal, more or less. Aren't you?
Andy Warhol
Everything is beautiful. Pop is everything.
Andy Warhol
I want to be a machine.
Andy Warhol
Since I was shot, everything is such a dream to me. Like I don't know whether I'm alive or whether I died. I wasn't afraid before. And having been dead once, I shouldn't feel fear. But I am afraid. I don't understand why.
Andy Warhol
Rodeo Drive is a giant butterscotch sundae.
Andy Warhol
I thought that young people had more problems than old people...Then I looked around and saw that everybody who looked young had young problems and that everybody who looked old had old problems.
Andy Warhol
I love the English language just like I love all American things. But I confess that I don't feel confident using complex sentences or big words, hence my famous minimally expressive style - all the gees and laconic answers to interviewers. Most of all, I have developed listening as an art form.
Andy Warhol
Everybody has their own America, and then they have pieces of a fantasy America that they think is out there but they can't see.
Andy Warhol
My instinct about painting says, 'if you don't think about it, it's right.' As soon as you have to decide and choose, it's wrong. And the more you decide about, the more wrong it gets.
Andy Warhol
