More quotes by Banksy
Keep your coins, I want change.
Banksy
A lot of people never use their initiative because no-one told them to.
Banksy
Live as a villain, die as a hero
Banksy
Is graffiti art or vandalism? That word has a lot of negative connotations and it alienates people, so no, I don't like to use the word 'art' at all.
Banksy
Become good at cheating and you never need to become good at anything else.
Banksy
We don’t need any more heroes we just need someone to take out the recycling.
Banksy
Some people become cops because they want to make the world a better place. Some people become vandals because they want to make the world a better looking place.
Banksy
The thing I hate the most about advertising is that it attracts all the bright, creative and ambitious young people, leaving us mainly with the slow and self-obsessed to become our artists.. Modern art is a disaster area. Never in the field of human history has so much been used by so many to say so little.
Banksy
In the future, everybody will be anonymous for 15 minutes.
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
I need someone to protect me from all the measures they take in order to protect me.
Banksy
The time of getting fame for your name on its own is over. Artwork that is only about wanting to be famous will never make you famous. Any fame is a by-product of making something that means something. You don't go to a restaurant and order a meal because you want to have a sh*t.
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
If you are dirty, insignificant and unloved then rats are the ultimate role model.
Banksy
It's a very frustrated feeling you get when the only people with good photos of you work are the police department.
Banksy
I used to tell everyone I met to be an artist..... I don't do that any more.
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 can win the rat race but you're still a rat.
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
The holy grail is to spend less time making the picture than it takes people to look at it.
