More quotes by Andy Warhol

Image
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
Image
People's fantasies are what give them problems. If you didn't have fantasies you wouldn't have problems because you'd just take whatever was there.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
Image
I have Social Disease. I have to go out every night. If I stay home one night I start spreading rumors to my dogs.

The nicer I am, the more people think I'm lying.
Andy Warhol

The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.
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
Image
I admit to having worn suede and leather pants myself for a while, but you just never feel clean, and it's degenerate, anyway, to wear animal skins.... So I went back to bluejeans after my degenerate period.
Andy Warhol
Image
So many people have so many problems. When you think that health is wealth, you're so grateful just to be normal, more or less. Aren't you?
Andy Warhol
Image
I'd asked around 10 or 15 people for suggestions. Finally one lady friend asked the right question, 'Well, what do you love most?' That's how I started painting money.
Andy Warhol

Just like New Yorkers themselves, the trees in New York [city] work harder than any others in the world.
Andy Warhol
Image
In some circles where very heavy people think they have very heavy brains, words like charming and clever and pretty are all put-downs all the lighter things in life, which are the most important things, are put down.
Andy Warhol
Image
I never wanted to be a painter I wanted to be a tap dancer.

There are beautiful sounds in rock. Very lazy, dreamlike noises. You can forget about the lyrics in most songs. Just dig the noise, and you've got your sound...We're musical primitives.

An artist is someone 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.

Image
Love and sex can go together and sex and unlove can go together and love and unsex can go together. But personal love and personal sex is bad.

I'm seeking out a new way to live and if it's surfing, that's the way I'll do it. I'll be a surfer for the rest of my life.
