Andy Warhol quotes about
reality love-is commercial-art
Fantasy love is much better than Reality Love.
beautiful soul dean
James Dean was the damaged but beautiful soul of our time.
writing thinking-about-you people
Some people spend their entire lives thinking about one particular famous person. They pick one person who's famous, and they dwell on him or her. They devote almost their entire consciousness to thinking about this person they've never even met, or maybe met once. If you ask any famous person about the kind of mail they get, you'll find that almost every one of them has at least one person who's obsessed with them and writes constantly. It feels so strange to think that someone is spending their whole time thinking about you.
teenage mean thinking
So today if you see a person who looks like your teenage fantasy walking down the street, it's probably not your fantasy, but someone who had the same fantasy as you and decided instead of getting it or being it, to look like it, and so he went to the store and bought the look that you both like. So forget it. Just think about all the James Deans and what it means.

Remember, they've never seen you before in their life.
nice thinking people
Edward Smith: What do you think is the characteristic of a really nice person? Some people you obviously do like more than others. Andy Warhol: Ummm, well, if they talk a lot. ES: What, and don't make you talk? AW: Yeah, yes, that's a really nice person.

thinking years individuality
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.
memories atmosphere photographer
And your own life while it's happening to you never has any atmosphere until it's a memory.

Employees make the best dates. You don't have to pick them up and they're always tax-deductible.

During the 1960s, I think, people forgot what emotions were supposed to be. And I don't think they've ever remembered.

The most exciting thing is not doing it. If you fall in love with someone and never do it, it's much more exciting.

I always wished I had died, and I still wish that, because I could have gotten the whole thing over with.
