"If you were living in New York in the late 1970s and aspired to be one of the elusive "beautiful people," chances are you stood outside Studio 54 — a boogie wonderland of disco located on West 54th Street in Manhattan — and hoped you'd be chosen to party with the odd mix of artists, writers, actors, dancers, singers, and memorably nutty "nobodies" inside. "It's the place where my prediction from the sixties finally came true: 'In the future everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes,'" Andy Warhol, a regular patron, once said of the club, which packed in 700 people on peak nights. "I'm bored with that line. I never use it anymore. My new line is, 'In fifteen minutes everybody will be famous.'"  (Life Magazine)
