More quotes by 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
If you are dirty, insignificant and unloved then rats are the ultimate role model.
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
Fight the fighters, not their wars.
Banksy
Keep your coins, I want change.
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
People either love me or they hate me, or they don't really care.
Banksy
Brandalism Any advertisement in public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It belongs to you. It's yours to take, rearrange and re-use. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.
Banksy
When you go to an art gallery you are simply a tourist looking at the trophy cabinet of a few millionaires.
Banksy
There's nothing more dangerous than someone who wants to make the world a better place.
Banksy
Bus stops are far more interesting and useful places to have art than in museums.
Banksy
The art world is the biggest joke going. It's a rest home for the overprivileged, the pretentious, and the weak. And modern art is a disgrace - never have so many people used so much stuff and taken so long to say so little.
Banksy
A lot of people never use their initiative because no-one told them to.
Banksy
My lawyer's opinion is that the cops might not actually be able to charge me with criminal damage any more - because theoretically my graffiti actually increases the value of property rather than decreasing it. That's his theory, but then my lawyer also believes wearing novelty cartoon ties is a good look.
Banksy
The Art we look at is made by only a select few. A small group create, promote, purchase, exhibit and decide the success of Art. Only a few hundred people in the world have any real say. When you go to an Art gallery you are simply a tourist looking at the trophy cabinet of a few millionaires
Banksy
There are four basic human needs food, sleep, sex and revenge.
Banksy
The holy grail is to spend less time making the picture than it takes people to look at it.
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
On Painting Rats, and the Glorification of Them. They exist without permission. They are hated, hunted and persecuted. They live in quiet desperation amongst the filth. And yet they are capable of bringing entire civilizations to their knees. If you are dirty, insignificant, and unloved then rats are the ultimate role model.
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.
