Image
What I was actually trying to do in my early movies was show how people can meet other people and what they can do and what they can say to each other. That was the whole idea: two people getting acquainted.
Andy Warhol
Image
Paintings are too hard. The things I want to show are mechanical. Machines have less problems. I'd like to be a machine, wouldn't you?
Andy Warhol
Image
The interviewer should just tell me the words he wants me to say and I’ll repeat them after him. I think that would be so great because I’m so empty I just can’t think of anything to say.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
Image
I'm seeking out a new way to live and if it's surfing, that's the way I'll do it. I'll be a surfer for the rest of my life.
Andy Warhol

Andy Warhol
Image
Actually, I jade very quickly. Once is usually enough. Either once only, or every day. If you do something once it’s exciting, and if you do it every day it’s exciting. But if you do it, say, twice or just almost every day, it’s not good any more.
Andy Warhol

I really like to work a lot. It makes time go by fast.
Andy Warhol
Image
It must be hard to be a model, because you'd want to be like the photograph of you, and you can't ever look that way.
Andy Warhol
Image
If everybody's not a beauty, then nobody is
Andy Warhol
Image
I can't remember my dreams more than a couple of seconds after I wake up. It's frustrating because sometimes I dream that I'm watching a really good movie.
Andy Warhol
Image
An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have.
Andy Warhol
Image
I have Social Disease. I have to go out every night. If I stay home one night I start spreading rumors to my dogs.
Andy Warhol
Image
Sometimes something can look beautiful just because it's different in some way from the other things around it. One red petunia in a window box will look very beautiful if all the rest of them are white, and vice-versa.
Andy Warhol
Image
Why do people spend their time being sad when they could be happy?
Andy Warhol
Image
The idea of waiting for something makes it more exciting
Andy Warhol

Money has a certain kind of amnesty.
Andy Warhol

Some people look 40 when they're 40. People look the way they're supposed to look at any age.
