More quotes by Banksy

Banksy
We don’t need any more heroes we just need someone to take out the recycling.
Banksy
Nothing is black and white, and there is no purity and there is no such thing has justice.
Banksy

Banksy

Banksy
It doesn't take much to be a successful artist-all you need to do is dedicate your entire life to it.
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.
