Quote

I'd rather do new stuff. The old stuff is better to talk about than to see. It always sounds better than it really is.

Those who talk about individuality the most are the ones who most object to deviation, and in a few years it may be the other way around. Some day everybody will just think what they want to think, and then everybody will probably be thinking alike that seems to be what is happening.

My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person. People are only glamorous if you don't see them. Like the movies used to make people years ago. There is something about people on screen that makes them so special when you see them in person, they are so different and the whole illusion is gone.

I'll bet there are a lot of artists that nobody hears about who just make more money than anybody. The people that do all the sculptures and paintings for big building construction. We never hear about them, but they make more money than anybody.
Andy Warhol
Image
So many people have so many problems. When you think that health is wealth, you're so grateful just to be normal, more or less. Aren't you?
Andy Warhol
Image
In the early days of film, fans used to idolize a whole star - they would take one star and love everything about that star ... Today people can idolize a star in one area and forget about him in another. A big rock star might sell millions and millions of records, but then if he makes a bad movie ... forget it.

The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.

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

Every song has a memory every song has the ability to make or break your heart, shut down the heart, and open the eyes. But I’m afraid if you look at a thing long enough it loses all of its meaning

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.

I think an artist is anybody who does something well, like if you cook well.

I think it would be great to make a $2 million or $3 million art movie where nobody would really have to go to it. I thought that would be a good project to work on . . . do something really artistic.
