More quotes by 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
I originally set out to try and save the world, but now I'm not sure I like it enough.
Banksy
There's obviously nothing wrong with selling your art - only an idiot with a trust fund would tell you otherwise. But it's confusing to know how far you should take it.
Banksy
Should # graffiti be judged on the same level as modern art? Of course not: It's way more important than that
Banksy
We don’t need any more heroes we just need someone to take out the recycling.
Banksy
If at first you don't succeed, Call an airstrike.
Banksy
In the future, everybody will be anonymous for 15 minutes.
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
Bus stops are far more interesting and useful places to have art than in museums.
Banksy
I don't know why people are so keen to put the details of their private life in public they forget that invisibility is a superpower.
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
You can win the rat race but you're still a rat.
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
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
This is a big surprise I don't agree with the concept of award ceremonies, but I'm prepared to make an exception for the ones I'm nominated for. The last time there was a naked man covered in gold paint in my house, it was me.
Banksy
I know street art can feel increasingly like the marketing wing of an art career, so I wanted to make some art without the price tag attached. There's no gallery show or book or film. It's pointless. Which hopefully means something.
Banksy
You don't need planning permission to build castles in the sky
Banksy
It's a very frustrated feeling you get when the only people with good photos of you work are the police department.
Banksy
Keep your coins, I want change.
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.
