More quotes by Banksy
Bus stops are far more interesting and useful places to have art than in museums.
Banksy
You're mind is working at its best when you're being paranoid. You explore every avenue and possibility of your situation at high speed with total clarity.
Banksy
You live in the city and all the time there are signs telling you what to do and billboards trying to sell you something.
Banksy
You don't need planning permission to build castles in the sky
Banksy
I originally set out to try and save the world, but now I'm not sure I like it enough.
Banksy
Film is incredibly democratic and accessible, it's probably the best option if you actually want to change the world, not just re-decorate it.
Banksy
You owe the companies nothing. You especially don't owe them any courtesy. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don't even start asking for theirs.
Banksy
I don't think you should have to pay to look at graffiti. You should only pay if you want to get rid of it.
Banksy

Banksy
There's nothing more dangerous than someone who wants to make the world a better place.
Banksy
It's a very frustrated feeling you get when the only people with good photos of you work are the police department.
Banksy
You're advised not to drink the replica Arab spring water.
Banksy
Graffiti ultimately wins out over proper art because it becomes part of your city, it' s a tool I'll meet you in that pub, you know, the one opposite that wall with a picture of a monkey holding a chainsaw. I mean, how much more useful can a painting be than that?
Banksy
Keep your coins, I want change.
Banksy
We don’t need any more heroes we just need someone to take out the recycling.
Banksy
A lot of people never use their initiative because no-one told them to.
Banksy
There are four basic human needs food, sleep, sex and revenge.
Banksy
I mean, they say you die twice. One time when you stop breathing and a second time, a bit later on, when somebody says your name for the last time.
Banksy
I wanted to highlight the destruction in Gaza by posting photos on my website - but on the internet, people only look at pictures of kittens.
Banksy
I am unable to comment on who may or may not be Banksy, but anyone described as 'good at drawing' doesn't sound like Banksy to me.
