What I was actually trying to do in my early movies was show how people can meet other people and what they can do and what they can say to each other. That was the whole idea: two people getting acquainted.

More quotes by Andy Warhol
Just like New Yorkers themselves, the trees in New York [city] work harder than any others in the world.
Andy Warhol
I'm confused about who the news belongs to. I always have it in my head that if your name's in the news, then the news should be paying you. Because it's your news and they're taking it and selling it as their product. ...If people didn't give the news their news, and if everybody kept their news to themselves, the news wouldn't have any news.
Andy Warhol
Uptown is for people who have already done something. Downtown is where they’re doing something now. I live uptown but I love downtown.
Andy Warhol
I've decided something: Commercial things really do stink. As soon as it becomes commercial for a mass market it really stinks.
Andy Warhol
I used to have the same lunch every day, for 20 years, I guess, the same thing over and over again.
Andy Warhol
Exposure and attention make a work famous - the more you talk about it, the more attention it gets, the more validity it achieves.
Andy Warhol
I get so tired of painting. I've been trying to give it up all the time, if we could just make a living out of movies or the newspaper business or something. It's so boring, painting the same picture over and over.
Andy Warhol
Edward Smith: What do you think is the characteristic of a really nice person? Some people you obviously do like more than others. Andy Warhol: Ummm, well, if they talk a lot. ES: What, and don't make you talk? AW: Yeah, yes, that's a really nice person.
Andy Warhol
I can't bear to let all this beautiful talk go by. Everybody says... fantastic things. People are always putting it down as an invasion of privacy, but I think everyone should be bugged all the time... bugged and photographed.
Andy Warhol
The key of the success of Studio 54 is that it’s a dictatorship at the door and a democracy on the dance floor.
Andy Warhol
Coffee never used to keep me up at night, now it does.
Andy Warhol
I never understood why when you died, you didn't just vanish, everything could just keep going on the way it was only you just wouldn't be there. I always thought I'd like my own tombstone to be blank. No epitaph, and no name. Well, actually, I'd like it to say 'figment.'
Andy Warhol
People are always calling me a mirror and if a mirror looks into a mirror, what is there to see?
Andy Warhol
I like boring things.
Andy Warhol
When the Woolworth's-Hot-Fudge-Sundae switch goes on, then I know I really have something.
Andy Warhol
I think kids should go to high school until they're 30. No, really, because people are staying younger now and there's nothing to do. If you stayed longer, then it would be really great.
Andy Warhol
Brigitte Bardot was one of the first women to be really modern and treat men like love objects, buying them and discarding them. I like that.
Andy Warhol
People in uniform always look so great.
Andy Warhol
I believe in low lights and trick mirrors.
Andy Warhol
I never wanted to be a painter I wanted to be a tap dancer.
