More quotes by 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
Keep your coins, I want change.
Banksy
If at first you don't succeed, Call an airstrike.
Banksy
I used to tell everyone I met to be an artist..... I don't do that any more.
Banksy
I don't know if street art ever really works indoors. If you domesticate an animal, it goes from being wild and free to sterile, fat and sleepy. So maybe the art should stay outside.
Banksy
If you don't own a train company then you go and paint on one instead... it all comes from that thing at school when you had to have name tags in the back of something... that makes it belong to you. You can own half the city by scribbling your name over it.
Banksy
Although you might have to creep about at night and lie to your mum it’s actually one of the more honest art forms available. There is no elitism or hype, it exhibits on the best walls a town has to offer and nobody is put off by the price of admission.
Banksy
I don't believe in anything. I'm just here for the violence.
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.
Banksy
All artists are willing to suffer for their work. But why are so few prepared to learn to draw?
Banksy
Some people represent authority without ever possessing any of their own.
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
It doesn't take much to be a successful artist-all you need to do is dedicate your entire life to it.
Banksy
I tell myself I use art to promote dissent, but maybe I am just using dissent to promote my art. I plead not guilty to selling out. But I plead it from a bigger house than I used to live in.
Banksy
Bus stops are far more interesting and useful places to have art than in museums.
Banksy
There's nothing more dangerous than someone who wants to make the world a better place.
Banksy
We can't do anything to change the world until capitalism crumbles. In the meantime we should all go shopping to console ourselves.
Banksy
Graffiti is only dangerous in the mind of three types of people politicians, advertising executives and graffiti writers.
Banksy
You can win the rat race but you're still a rat.
Banksy
It's a very frustrated feeling you get when the only people with good photos of you work are the police department.
Banksy
