They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.
Andy Warhol

...the more you look at the same exact thing, the more the meaning goes away, and the better and emptier you feel.

If something's going to happen for you, it will, you can't make it happen. And it never does happen until you're past the point where you care whether it happens or not.

You meet rich people and you hang around with them, and one night they've had a few drinks and they say 'I'll buy it!' Then they tell their friends, 'You must have this person's work, darling,' and that's all you need. That's all it takes. Get it?
Andy Warhol
Image
The moment you label something, you take a step-I mean, you can never go back again to seeing it unlabelled.
Andy Warhol
Image
There is beauty in everything, Just not everybody sees it
Andy Warhol
Image
Even beauties can be unattractive. If you catch a beauty in the wrong light at the right time, forget it. I believe in low lights and trick mirrors. I believe in plastic surgery.
Andy Warhol
Image
James Dean was the damaged but beautiful soul of our time.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
Image
Some people look 40 when they're 40. People look the way they're supposed to look at any age.
Andy Warhol
Image
People in uniform always look so great.
Andy Warhol
Image
People need to be made more aware of the need to work at learning how to live because life is so quick and sometimes it goes away too quickly.
Andy Warhol

You should always have a product that has nothing to do with who you are or what people think about you... so that you never start thinking that your product is you, or your fame or your aura.
Andy Warhol
