As soon as you stop wanting something you get it. I've found that to be absolutely axiomatic.

More quotes by Andy Warhol
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
The reason I'm painting this way is that I want to be a machine, and I feel that whatever I do and do machine-like is what I want to do.
Andy Warhol
I never met a pet I didn't like.
Andy Warhol
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
I'm afraid that if you look at a thing long enough, it loses all of its meaning.
Andy Warhol
Sometimes people let the same problem make them miserable for years when they could just say, So what. That's one of my favorite things to say. So what.
Andy Warhol
At the times in my life when I was feeling the most gregarious and looking for bosom friendships, I couldn't find any takers, so that exactly when I was alone was when I felt the most like not being alone... I became a loner in my own mind... I decided I'd rather be alone.
Andy Warhol
I always run into strong women who are looking for weak men to dominate them.
Andy Warhol
I still care about people but it would be so much easier not to care. I don't want to get too close I don't like to touch things.
Andy Warhol
Art? That's a man's name.
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
Business Art is the step that comes after Art.
Andy Warhol
People should fall in love with their eyes closed.
Andy Warhol
So many people seem to prefer my silver-screenings of movie stars to the rest of my work. It must be the subject matter that attracts them, because my death and violence paintings are just as good.
Andy Warhol
My ideal city would be one long main street with no cross streets or side streets to jam up traffic. Just a long one-way street.
Andy Warhol
Traveling makes time go fast. So maybe traveling in space will give people time.
Andy Warhol
I really believe in empty spaces, although, as an artist, I make a lot of junk. Empty space is never-wasted space. Wasted space is any space that has art in it. An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have but that he, for some reason, thinks it would be a good idea to give them.
Andy Warhol
Maybe the reason my memory is so bad is that I always do at least two things at once. It's easier to forget something you only half-did or quarter did.
Andy Warhol
I will go to the Opening of Anything, including a Toilet Seat
Andy Warhol
I love going out every night. It’s so exciting.
Andy Warhol
