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

Andy Warhol
Image
Don't pay any attention to what they write about you. Just measure it in inches.

Pop art is for everyone.

It would be very glamorous to be reincarnated as a great big ring on Liz Taylor's finger.
Andy Warhol

People are always so boring when they band together. You have to be alone to develop all the idiosyncrasies that make a person interesting.
Andy Warhol
Image
I used to think that everything was just being funny but now I don't know. I mean, how can you tell?
Andy Warhol
Image
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.

Sex is more exciting on the screen and between the pages than between the sheets.
Andy Warhol
Image
My fascination with letting images repeat and repeat or in film's case 'run on' manifests my belief that we spend much of our lives seeing without observing.

Success is when the checks don’t bounce.
