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

More quotes by Andy Warhol
I think they should have movies in restaurants. I can't believe that so many people get together just to sit there. It's so abstract... isn't it abstract? What are these people sitting here watching?
Andy Warhol
Employees make the best dates. You don't have to pick them up and they're always tax-deductible.
Andy Warhol
Switzerland is my favorite place now, because it's so - nothing. There is absolutely nothing to do.
Andy Warhol

I'll bet there are a lot of artists that nobody hears about who just make more money than anybody. The people that do all the sculptures and paintings for big building construction. We never hear about them, but they make more money than anybody.
Andy Warhol
It's great not to be a collector.
Andy Warhol
When you work with people who misunderstand you, instead of getting transmissions, you get transmutations, and that's much more interesting in the long run.
Andy Warhol
I wake up every morning. I open my eyes and think: here we go again.
Andy Warhol
I think anybody can take a good picture. My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person doing something unfamous. It's being in the right place at the wrong time.
Andy Warhol
If you're traveling for five years or something like that, you're going somewhere. But five years are being used up, and you don't have to do anything. You just sit on the plane. That might make time go really fast.
Andy Warhol
Now and then, someone would accuse me of being evil - of letting people destroy themselves while I watched, just so I could film them and tape-record them. But I didn't think of myself as evil - just realistic.
Andy Warhol
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
I'd asked around 10 or 15 people for suggestions. Finally one lady friend asked the right question, 'Well, what do you love most?' That's how I started painting money.
Andy Warhol
Nutty people are always writing me. I always think I must be on some nutty mailing list.
Andy Warhol
Uptown is for people who have already done something. Downtown is where they’re doing something now. I live uptown but I love downtown.
Andy Warhol
I will go to the Opening of Anything, including a Toilet Seat
Andy Warhol
