I think it would be great to make a $2 million or $3 million art movie where nobody would really have to go to it. I thought that would be a good project to work on . . . do something really artistic.
Andy Warhol
Everything is more glamorous when you do it in bed anyway.
Andy Warhol
I'm bored with that line. I never use it anymore. My new line is 'In 15 minutes everybody will be famous.'
Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol
I never understood why when you died, you didn't just vanish, everything could just keep going on the way it was only you just wouldn't be there. I always thought I'd like my own tombstone to be blank. No epitaph, and no name. Well, actually, I'd like it to say 'figment.'
Andy Warhol
If you wear a wig, everybody notices. But if you then dye the wig, people notice the dye.
Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol
Everyone needs a fantasy.
Andy Warhol
The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.
Andy Warhol
Brigitte Bardot was one of the first women to be really modern and treat men like love objects, buying them and discarding them. I like that.
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
Pelé is one of the few who contradicted my theory: instead of fifteen minutes of fame, he will have fifteen centuries.
Andy Warhol
There is beauty in everything, Just not everybody sees it
Andy Warhol
I'll bet there are a lot of artists that nobody hears about who just make more money than anybody.
Andy Warhol
Buying is more American than thinking, and I'm as American as they come.
Andy Warhol
The world fascinates me.
Andy Warhol
Reruns are my favorite things on TV.
