Reruns are my favorite things on TV.
Andy Warhol

I never think that people die. They just go to department stores.
Andy Warhol

That's the hard part of overdosing on cherries-you have all the pits to tell you exactly how many you ate. Not more or less. Exactly. One-seed fruits really bother me for that reason. That's why I'd always rather eat raisins than prunes. Prune pits are even more imposing than cherry pits.
Andy Warhol

I can never get over when you're on the beach how beautiful the sand looks and the water washes it away and straightens it up and the trees and the grass all look great. I think having land and not ruining it is the most beautiful art that anybody could ever want to own.
Andy Warhol
Image
Sometimes something can look beautiful just because it's different in some way from the other things around it. One red petunia in a window box will look very beautiful if all the rest of them are white, and vice-versa.

I'm starting to think that the men are the ones who should wear the big jewelry because they can defend it better when it's robbed. They should wear the big diamonds. You can show how much of a man you are, because the bigger the diamond, the stronger you have to be to defend it.

Free countries are great, because you can actually sit in somebody else's space for a while and pretend you're a part of it. You can sit in the Plaza Hotel and you don't even have to live there. You can just sit and watch the people go by.
Andy Warhol

The pop artists did images that anybody walking down Broadway could recognize in a split second — comics, picnic tables, men’s trousers, celebrities, shower curtains, refrigerators, Coke bottles. All the great modern things that the Abstract Expressionists tried not to notice at all.
Andy Warhol
Image
They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.
Andy Warhol
Image
If everybody's not a beauty, then nobody is
Andy Warhol

Security breeds stagnation.
Andy Warhol
Image
Sometimes people let the same problem make them miserable for years when they could just say, So what. That's one of my favorite things to say. So what.
Andy Warhol
Image
I never fall apart, because I never fall together.
Andy Warhol
Image
Sports figures are to the '70s what movie stars were to the '60s.
Andy Warhol

Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery.

Look poor, think rich.
Andy Warhol

Fashion wasn't what you wore someplace anymore it was the whole reason for going.
Andy Warhol
Image
Fantasy love is much better than reality love. Never doing it is very exciting. The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.
Andy Warhol

I've never met a person I've couldn't call a beauty.
