More quotes by Andy Warhol
I wanted to paint nothing. I was looking for something that was the essence of nothing, and the soup can was it.
Andy Warhol
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
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
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
I think pot should be legal. I don’t smoke it, but I like the smell of it.
Andy Warhol
In the future, everybody will be world famous for fifteen minutes.
Andy Warhol
Sex is the biggest nothing of all time.
Andy Warhol
My style was always to spread out rather than to move up.
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. So the fantasy corners of America seem so atmospheric because you 've pieced them together from scenes in movies and music and lines from books.
Andy Warhol
Bad taste makes the day go by faster.
Andy Warhol
I think kids should go to high school until they're 30. No, really, because people are staying younger now and there's nothing to do. If you stayed longer, then it would be really great.
Andy Warhol
I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own.
Andy Warhol
Think rich, look poor.
Andy Warhol
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.
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
I think the first photograph I did was a ballplayer. It was a way of showing action or something.
Andy Warhol
I always think I don't do the first one good, so I try to do it more.
Andy Warhol
If everybody's not a beauty, then nobody is
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
I can never get over when you're on the beach how beautiful the sand looks and the water washes it away and straightens it up and the trees and the grass all look great. I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own.
Andy Warhol
