The biggest price you pay for love is that you have to have somebody around, you can't be on your own, wich is always so much better.
Andy Warhol
Image
You'd be surprised how many people want to hang an electric chair on their living-room wall. Specially if the background color matches the drapes.
Andy Warhol
Image
Pop art is about liking things.
Andy Warhol
Image
Everything is more glamorous when you do it in bed anyway.
Andy Warhol
Image
I think every painting should be the same size and the same color so they're all interchangeable and nobody thinks they have a better painting or a worse painting.... Besides even when the subject is different, people want the same painting.
Andy Warhol
Image
I used to cut out paper dolls.
Andy Warhol
Image
Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.
Andy Warhol
Image
Isn't life a series of images that change as they repeat themselves?
Andy Warhol

Security breeds stagnation.
Andy Warhol
Image
Before I was shot, I always thought that I was more half-there than all-there - I always suspected that I was watching TV instead of living life. Right when I was being shot and ever since, I knew that I was watching television.

Image
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
Image
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
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
As soon as you stop wanting something you get it. I've found that to be absolutely axiomatic.
Andy Warhol
Image
It's the movies that have really been running things in America ever since they were invented. They show you what to do, how to do it, when to do it, how to feel about it, and how to look how you feel about it.
Andy Warhol
Image
And your own life while it's happening to you never has any atmosphere until it's a memory.
Andy Warhol
