Sometimes the little times you don't think are anything while they're happening turn out to be what marks a whole period of your life.
Andy Warhol
Image
At the times in my life when I was feeling the most gregarious and looking for bosom friendships, I couldn't find any takers, so that exactly when I was alone was when I felt the most like not being alone... I became a loner in my own mind... I decided I'd rather be alone.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
Image
Beauty really has to do with the way a person carries it off
Andy Warhol
Image
I'm the type who'd be happy not going anywhere as long as I was sure I knew exactly what was happening at the places I wasn't going to. I'm the type who'd like to sit home and watch every party that I'm invited to on a monitor in my bedroom.
Andy Warhol

Wasting money puts you in a real party mood.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
The idea of waiting for something makes it more exciting
Andy Warhol
Image
The nicer I am, the more people think I'm lying.
Andy Warhol
Image
I want everybody to think alike. I think everybody should be a machine.
Andy Warhol
Image
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
Image
The world fascinates me.
Andy Warhol
Image
Publicity is like eating peanuts. Once you start you can’t stop.
Andy Warhol
Image
There is beauty in everything, Just not everybody sees it
Andy Warhol
Image
Fantasy love is much better than Reality Love.
Andy Warhol
Image
That's the hard part of overdosing on cherries-you have all the pits to tell you exactly how many you ate. Not more or less. Exactly. One-seed fruits really bother me for that reason. That's why I'd always rather eat raisins than prunes. Prune pits are even more imposing than cherry pits.
Andy Warhol
Image
I want to die with my blue jeans on.
Andy Warhol
Image
I am a deeply superficial person.
Andy Warhol
Image
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.
Andy Warhol
Image
I don’t know anybody who doesn’t have a fantasy. Everybody must have a fantasy.
Andy Warhol
