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
Security breeds stagnation.
Andy Warhol
Sociological critics are waste makers.
Andy Warhol
I just happen to like ordinary things. When I paint them, I don't try to make them extraordinary. I just try to paint them ordinary-ordina ry.
Andy Warhol
The most beautiful thing in Tokyo is McDonald's. The most beautiful thing in Stockholm is McDonald's. The most beautiful thing in Florence is McDonald's. Peking and Moscow don't have anything beautiful yet.
Andy Warhol
I always like to see if the art across the street is better than mine.
Andy Warhol
