More quotes by Andy Warhol
I can't give parties. It's so hard. When I want to call somebody up for dinner they think I'm using them or something. I just can't stand it.
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
The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.
Andy Warhol
Why do people think artists are special? It's just another job.
Andy Warhol
If something's going to happen for you, it will, you can't make it happen. And it never does happen until you're past the point where you care whether it happens or not. I guess it's for our own good that it always happens that way, because after you stop wanting things is when having them won't make you go crazy.
Andy Warhol
There should be a course in the first grade on love.
Andy Warhol
I will go to the Opening of Anything, including a Toilet Seat
Andy Warhol
When I was in the hospital after I was shot they gave me drugs, but it was so great to get off those.
Andy Warhol
I'm afraid that if you look at a thing long enough, it loses all of its meaning.
Andy Warhol
The interviewer should just tell me the words he wants me to say and I’ll repeat them after him. I think that would be so great because I’m so empty I just can’t think of anything to say.
Andy Warhol
I love it when you ask actors, 'What are you Doing now?' and they say 'I'm between roles'. To be living 'life between roles' that's my favorite
Andy Warhol
Buying is more American than thinking, and I'm as American as they come.
Andy Warhol
Don't pay any attention to what they write about you. Just measure it in inches.
Andy Warhol
Paintings are too hard. The things I want to show are mechanical. Machines have less problems. I'd like to be a machine, wouldn't you?
Andy Warhol
It's funny when people don't know you and they meet you for the first time and think you're so great. When fans know you for more than three or four times the magic is gone.
Andy Warhol
People sometimes say that the way things happen in the movies is unreal, but actually, it's the way things happen to you in life that's unreal. The movies make emotions look strong and real, whereas when things really do happen to you, it's like you're watching television -- you don't feel anything.
Andy Warhol
You can never predict what little things in the way somebody looks or talks or acts will set off peculiar emotional reactions in other people.
Andy Warhol
One person in the 60s fascinated me more than anybody I had ever known. And the fascination I experienced was probably very close to a certain kind of love
Andy Warhol
Art is what you can get away with.
Andy Warhol
The symptom of love is when some of the chemicals inside you go bad. So there must be something in love because your chemicals do tell you something.
Andy Warhol
