Quote

[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.

Image
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
Why do people spend their time being sad when they could be happy?
Andy Warhol
Image
I never read, I just look at pictures.
Andy Warhol
Image
I read an article on me once that described my machine-method of silk-screen copying and painting: 'What a bold and audacious solution, what depths of the man are revealed in this solution!' What does that mean?
Andy Warhol
Image
The girls in California were probably prettier in a standard sense than the New York girls--blonder and in better health, I guess but I still preferred the way the girls in New York looked--stranger and more neurotic (a girl always looked more beautiful and fragile when she was about to have a nervous breakdown).
Andy Warhol
Image
Employees make the best dates. You don't have to pick them up and they're always tax-deductible.
Andy Warhol
Image
The most beautiful thing in Tokyo is McDonald's. The most beautiful thing in Stockholm is McDonald's. The most beautiful thing in Florence is McDonald's. Peking and Moscow don't have anything beautiful yet.
Andy Warhol
Image
I think the first photograph I did was a ballplayer. It was a way of showing action or something.
Andy Warhol
Image
Paintings are too hard. The things I want to show are mechanical. Machines have less problems. I'd like to be a machine, wouldn't you?
Andy Warhol
Image
I'm for mechanical art. When I took up silk screening, it was to more fully exploit the preconceived image through the commercial techniques of multiple reproduction.
Andy Warhol
Image
I was trying to think the other day about what you do now in America if you want to be successful. Before, you were dependable and wore a good suit. Looking around, I guess that today you have to do all the same things but not wear a good suit. I guess that's all it is. Think rich. Look poor.
Andy Warhol
Image
I wish I hadn't made so many images.
Andy Warhol
Image
Don't think about making art.
Andy Warhol
Image
How can you say one style is better than another? You ought to be able to be an Abstract Expressionist next week, or a Pop artist, or a realist, without feeling you've given up something.. I think that would be so great, to be able to change styles. And I think that's what's is going to happen, that's going to be the whole new scene.
Andy Warhol
Image
Don't pay any attention to what they write about you. Just measure it in inches.
Andy Warhol
Image
You have to be willing to get happy about nothing.
Andy Warhol
Image
I think somebody should be able to do all my paintings for me.
Andy Warhol
Image
I used to drink Coke all the time. It was so good. It gives you a lot of energy.
Andy Warhol
Image
I really do live for the future, because when I'm eating a box of candy, I can't wait to taste the last piece.

Fashion is more art than art is
