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
Image
What's great about this country is that America started the tradition where the richest consumers buy essentially the same things as the poorest.
Andy Warhol
Image
Dying is the most embarrassing thing that can ever happen to you, because someone's got to take care of all your details.
Andy Warhol
Image
Everybody has their own America, and then they have pieces of a fantasy America that they think is out there but they can't see.

When I think about what sort of person I would most like to have on a retainer, I think it would be a boss. A boss who could tell me what to do, because that makes everything easy when you're working.
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
Image
As soon as you stop wanting something you get it. I've found that to be absolutely axiomatic.
Andy Warhol
Image
Human beings are born solitary, but everywhere they are in chains - daisy chains - of interactivity. Social actions are makeshift forms, often courageous, sometimes ridiculous, always strange. And in a way, every social action is a negotiation, a compromise between 'his,' 'her' or 'their' wish and yours.
Andy Warhol

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

You could never be an adolescent if you don't look like one.

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).

Being born is like being kidnapped. And then sold into slavery. People are working every minute. The machinery is always going. Even when you sleep.

Everyone needs a fantasy.

I am a deeply superficial person.
