Today Is The 25th Anniversary Of Andy Warhol’s Death

In 1968 Andy Warhol was shot and gravely wounded by a disturbed woman.  “When I got shot,”  he wrote later, “two bullets went through my stomach, liver, spleen,  esophagus, left lung and right lung.  The doctors and everyone else,  including me, were sure I was going to die, so we all got ready, and  then I didn’t do it.  But I always wished I had died, and I still wish  that, because I could have gotten the whole thing over with.”

Newsweek March 9, 1987

In the last few months I have been looking up to him a LOT, I owe you so much Andy :(
