[My vision of America is] a good vision. Actually the best is on TV. I wanted to shoot all the pictures off the TV. No one would have known the difference.

More quotes by Andy Warhol
I think an artist is anybody who does something well, like if you cook well.
Andy Warhol
Sometimes something can look beautiful just because it's different in some way from the other things around it. One red petunia in a window box will look very beautiful if all the rest of them are white, and vice-versa.
Andy Warhol
You meet rich people and you hang around with them, and one night they've had a few drinks and they say 'I'll buy it!' Then they tell their friends, 'You must have this person's work, darling,' and that's all you need. That's all it takes. Get it?
Andy Warhol
The idea is not to live forever, it is to create something that will
Andy Warhol
Space is all one space and thought is all one thought, but my mind divides its spaces into spaces into spaces and thoughts into thoughts into thoughts. Like a large condominium. Occasionally I think about the one Space and the one Thought, but usually I don't. Usually I think about my condominium.
Andy Warhol
I really believe in empty spaces, although, as an artist, I make a lot of junk. Empty space is never-wasted space. Wasted space is any space that has art in it. An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have but that he, for some reason, thinks it would be a good idea to give them.
Andy Warhol
Rodeo Drive is a giant butterscotch sundae.
Andy Warhol
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
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.
Andy Warhol
There are beautiful sounds in rock. Very lazy, dreamlike noises. You can forget about the lyrics in most songs. Just dig the noise, and you've got your sound...We're musical primitives.
Andy Warhol
Wasting money puts you in a real party mood.
Andy Warhol
You have to hang on in periods when your style isn't popular, because if it's good, it'll come back, and you'll be a recognized beauty once again.
Andy Warhol
So many people seem to prefer my silver-screenings of movie stars to the rest of my work. It must be the subject matter that attracts them, because my death and violence paintings are just as good.
Andy Warhol
During the 1960s, I think, people forgot what emotions were supposed to be. And I don't think they've ever remembered.
Andy Warhol
Everything will be art and nothing will be art, because everything, as I believe, already is.
Andy Warhol
Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.
Andy Warhol
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
Everyone will be famous for 15 minutes.
Andy Warhol
Now and then, someone would accuse me of being evil - of letting people destroy themselves while I watched, just so I could film them and tape-record them. But I didn't think of myself as evil - just realistic.
Andy Warhol
Publicity is like eating peanuts. Once you start you can’t stop.
Andy Warhol
