Image
After Wakefield Poole's films, mine are unnecessary and a bit naive, don't you think?
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
Everything will be art and nothing will be art, because everything, as I believe, already is.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
Image
I think the first photograph I did was a ballplayer. It was a way of showing action or something.
Andy Warhol

Kiss me with your eyes.

When you stop wanting something, you get it.
Andy Warhol
Image
You can never predict what little things in the way somebody looks or talks or acts will set off peculiar emotional reactions in other people.
Andy Warhol
Image
Empty space is never-wasted space. Wasted space is any space that has art in it.
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
They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.
Andy Warhol
Image
You could never be an adolescent if you don't look like one.
Andy Warhol
Image
I think video is the best market. When the cassette market comes out, if you just do movies that nobody else can do, that'll be the new way.
Andy Warhol
Image
Romance is finding your fantasy in people who don't have it.
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.
Andy Warhol
Image
People sometimes say that the way things happen in the movies is unreal, but actually, it's the way things happen to you in life that's unreal. The movies make emotions look strong and real, whereas when things really do happen to you, it's like you're watching television -- you don't feel anything.
Andy Warhol
Image
I always notice flowers.
Andy Warhol
Image
In some circles where very heavy people think they have very heavy brains, words like charming and clever and pretty are all put-downs all the lighter things in life, which are the most important things, are put down.
Andy Warhol
Image
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.

Death means a lot of money, honey. Death can really make you look like a star.
