Quote

I like to work when I'm not working - do something that may not be considered work, but to me it's work. Getting exercise by going to the grocery store.

I thought that young people had more problems than old people...Then I looked around and saw that everybody who looked young had young problems and that everybody who looked old had old problems.
Andy Warhol
Image
When I did my self-portrait, I left all the pimples out because you always should. Pimples are a temporary condition and they don't have anything to do with what you really look like. Always omit the blemishes-they're not part of the good picture you want.
Andy Warhol
Image
I never understand how the lipstick business goes on because lipstick lasts forever.

Exposure and attention make a work famous - the more you talk about it, the more attention it gets, the more validity it achieves.

I like to be the right thing in the wrong space and the wrong thing in the right space. But usually being the right thing in the wrong space and the wrong thing in the right space is worth it, because something funny always happens.

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
Since I was shot, everything is such a dream to me. Like I don't know whether I'm alive or whether I died. I wasn't afraid before. And having been dead once, I shouldn't feel fear. But I am afraid. I don't understand why.

The most exciting thing is not doing it. If you fall in love with someone and never do it, it's much more exciting.

Photographers feel guilty that all they do for a living is press a button.

You'd be surprised how many people want to hang an electric chair on their living-room wall. Specially if the background color matches the drapes.

The wide multitude wanted to seem contrarian. It meant that this type of nonconformism had to be mass-produced.

I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD BE BUGGED ALL THE TIME...BUGGED AND PHOTOGRAPHED

I think anybody can take a good picture. My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person doing something unfamous. It's being in the right place at the wrong time.

Uptown is for people who have already done something. Downtown is where they’re doing something now. I live uptown but I love downtown.

Sex is more exciting on the screen and between the pages than between the sheets.
