If you're traveling for five years or something like that, you're going somewhere. But five years are being used up, and you don't have to do anything. You just sit on the plane. That might make time go really fast.
Andy Warhol

Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art
Andy Warhol
Image
I love the English language just like I love all American things. But I confess that I don't feel confident using complex sentences or big words, hence my famous minimally expressive style - all the gees and laconic answers to interviewers. Most of all, I have developed listening as an art form.
Andy Warhol
Image
My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person.
Andy Warhol
Image
I think every painting should be the same size and the same color so they're all interchangeable and nobody thinks they have a better painting or a worse painting.... Besides even when the subject is different, people want the same painting.
Andy Warhol

Everybody winds up kissing the wrong person good-night.

Image
I used to think that everything was just being funny but now I don't know. I mean, how can you tell?

I think everybody should like everybody.

I do the same thing everyday. I go to work and paint. I try to turn out as many pictures as I can.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
Image
Actually, I jade very quickly. Once is usually enough. Either once only, or every day. If you do something once it’s exciting, and if you do it every day it’s exciting. But if you do it, say, twice or just almost every day, it’s not good any more.
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'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
Image
I always think I don't do the first one good, so I try to do it more.
Andy Warhol
Image
I think somebody should be able to do all my paintings for me.
Andy Warhol
Image
Uptown is for people who have already done something. Downtown is where they’re doing something now. I live uptown but I love downtown.

Bad taste makes the day go by faster.

I was trying to think the other day about what you do now in America if you want to be successful. Before, you were dependable and wore a good suit. Looking around, I guess that today you have to do all the same things but not wear a good suit. I guess that's all it is. Think rich. Look poor.
Andy Warhol

Death means a lot of money, honey. Death can really make you look like a star.

Success is what sells.
