“I think his portraits of Jackie, Liz, Marilyn, Mao, Elvis, Lenin - and objects like the soup cans, the dollar signs, the hammer and sickle, it's all about icons. Its all about what people worship in an irreligious or secular world. In terms of Andy's personality and Andy Warhol as a human being who I was very close to, I still feel kind of sorry for him on a personal level. I mean, he was the ultimate example of great success wrapped around inner turmoil and emotional pain.” PeopleThinkingWorldFeelsHumansKindMeanStillsPainTermHuman BeingsLevelsExampleObjectsEmotionalPersonalityWorshipUltimateDollarsSorrySecularPortraitsSoupHammersIconsTurmoilEmotional PainGreat SuccessJackieMaoWarholLizSorry For Him Author:Bob Colacello
“Anyway, when I finished the book, I handed it in, didn't want to read it again, but when it finally was in print I felt like OK, I have to read this. And yeah, I thought God, this is petty, this is silly, too emotional, too raw...and maybe it was then, but now it all seems that it's so much better because all the stuff that felt petty and silly now seems more relevant because Andy was so important.” WantImportantBookSeemsFeltStuffEmotionalYeahFinishedSillyPrintRelevantPetty Author:Bob Colacello
