Quote

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.

I’m really afraid to feel happy because it never lasts
Andy Warhol

...the more you look at the same exact thing, the more the meaning goes away, and the better and emptier you feel.
Andy Warhol
Image
I really do live for the future, because when I'm eating a box of candy, I can't wait to taste the last piece.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
Image
People are always calling me a mirror and if a mirror looks into a mirror, what is there to see?

The idea is not to live forever, it is to create something that will
Andy Warhol

As soon as you stop wanting something you get it. I've found that to be absolutely axiomatic.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
Image
I loved working when I worked at commercial art and they told you what to do and how to do it and all you had to do was correct it and they'd say yes or no. The hard thing is when you have to dream up the tasteless things to do on your own.
Andy Warhol
Image
When I was in the hospital after I was shot they gave me drugs, but it was so great to get off those.
Andy Warhol
Image
The pop artists did images that anybody walking down Broadway could recognize in a split second — comics, picnic tables, men’s trousers, celebrities, shower curtains, refrigerators, Coke bottles. All the great modern things that the Abstract Expressionists tried not to notice at all.
Andy Warhol
Image
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

Land really is the best art.
Andy Warhol

It's great not to be a collector.
Andy Warhol
Image
[My vision of America is] a good vision. Actually the best is on TV. I wanted to shoot all the pictures off the TV. No one would have known the difference.

If you wear a wig, everybody notices. But if you then dye the wig, people notice the dye.

The Palace is a good theater, you can see from everywhere.
