When people are ready to, they change. They never do it before then, and sometimes they die before they get around to it. You can't make them change if they don't want to, just like when they do want to, you can't stop them.
Andy Warhol

More quotes by Andy Warhol
I'm afraid that if you look at a thing long enough, it loses all of its meaning.
Andy Warhol
I never wanted to be a painter I wanted to be a tap dancer.
Andy Warhol
The girls in California were probably prettier in a standard sense than the New York girls--blonder and in better health, I guess but I still preferred the way the girls in New York looked--stranger and more neurotic (a girl always looked more beautiful and fragile when she was about to have a nervous breakdown).
Andy Warhol
People are always so boring when they band together. You have to be alone to develop all the idiosyncrasies that make a person interesting.
Andy Warhol
Why do people spend their time being sad when they could be happy?
Andy Warhol
I never read, I just look at pictures.
Andy Warhol
That's the hard part of overdosing on cherries-you have all the pits to tell you exactly how many you ate. Not more or less. Exactly. One-seed fruits really bother me for that reason. That's why I'd always rather eat raisins than prunes. Prune pits are even more imposing than cherry pits.
Andy Warhol
[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.
Andy Warhol
Everything will be art and nothing will be art, because everything, as I believe, already is.
Andy Warhol
I always run into strong women who are looking for weak men to dominate them.
Andy Warhol
I do the same thing everyday. I go to work and paint. I try to turn out as many pictures as I can.
Andy Warhol
The most beautiful thing in Tokyo is McDonald's. The most beautiful thing in Stockholm is McDonald's. The most beautiful thing in Florence is McDonald's. Peking and Moscow don't have anything beautiful yet.
Andy Warhol
Don't pay any attention to what they write about you. Just measure it in inches.
Andy Warhol
I don't believe people die. They just go uptown. To Bloomingdales. They just take longer to get back.
Andy Warhol
I'm for mechanical art. When I took up silk screening, it was to more fully exploit the preconceived image through the commercial techniques of multiple reproduction.
Andy Warhol
Romance is finding your fantasy in people who don't have it.
Andy Warhol
Sports figures are to the '70s what movie stars were to the '60s.
Andy Warhol
I like to be the right thing in the wrong space and the wrong thing in the right space. But usually being the right thing in the wrong space and the wrong thing in the right space is worth it, because something funny always happens.
Andy Warhol
If something's going to happen for you, it will, you can't make it happen. And it never does happen until you're past the point where you care whether it happens or not. I guess it's for our own good that it always happens that way, because after you stop wanting things is when having them won't make you go crazy.
Andy Warhol
Pop art is for everyone.
Andy Warhol
