When the Woolworth's-Hot-Fudge-Sundae switch goes on, then I know I really have something.
Andy Warhol
Image
The childlike, gum-chewing naivete, the glamour rooted in despair, the self-admiring carelessness, the perfected otherness, the wispiness, the shadowy, voyeuristic, vaguely sinister aura, the pale, soft-spoken magical presence, the skin and bones . . .
Andy Warhol
Image
I'm bored with that line. I never use it anymore. My new line is 'In 15 minutes everybody will be famous.'
Andy Warhol
Image
Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.
