More quotes by 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
If I had gone ahead and died ten years ago, I'd probably be a cult figure today.
Andy Warhol
I think an artist is anybody who does something well, like if you cook well.
Andy Warhol
My fascination with letting images repeat and repeat or in film's case 'run on' manifests my belief that we spend much of our lives seeing without observing.
Andy Warhol
The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.
Andy Warhol
In the future, everybody will be world famous for fifteen minutes.
Andy Warhol
I never think that people die. They just go to department stores.
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
I'm a deeply superficial person.
Andy Warhol
I never read, I just look at pictures.
Andy Warhol
People are always so boring when they band together. You have to be alone to develop all the idiosyncrasies that make a person interesting.
Andy Warhol
...after you stop wanting things is when having them won't make you go crazy. After you stop wanting them is when you can handle having them. Or before. But never during. If you get things when you really want them, you go crazy. Everything becomes distorted when something you really want is sitting in your lap.
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
My image is a statement of the symbols of the harsh, impersonal products and brash materialistic objects on which America is built today. It is a projection of everything that can be bought and sold, and practical but impermanent symbols that sustain us.
Andy Warhol
Living in New York City gives people real incentives to want things that nobody else wants.
Andy Warhol
I've never met a person I've couldn't call a beauty.
Andy Warhol
Success is when the checks don’t bounce.
Andy Warhol
I always notice flowers.
Andy Warhol
Andy Warhol: I think everybody should like everybody. Gene Swenson: Is that what Pop Art is all about? Andy Warhol: Yes, it's liking things.
Andy Warhol
I have Social Disease. I have to go out every night. If I stay home one night I start spreading rumors to my dogs.
Andy Warhol
