Andy Warhol

The late Andy Warhol was one of the greatest pop artist creating paintings, books, prints and photography. Warhol was best known for his unique and outspoken personality. A soft-spoken homosexual who later in life took to wearing a silver-grey wig, he was said to be obsessed with fame and wealth and was surrounded by outlandish and flamboyant friends. Andy Warhol was a truly different, the type of character that New York seems to create once in a while. 

"I love Los Angeles. I love Hollywood. They're beautiful. Everybody's plastic, but I love plastic. I want to be plastic."
                               - Andy Warhol 

Warhol uses to word "Love" back to back in the first two sentences. Then uses "plastic" in the last two sentences back to back. His use of short sentences show he simply gets straight to the point about how he likes the the unoriginal feel in Hollywood calling everybody "plastic".
