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.

More quotes by 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
I used to tell everyone I met to be an artist..... I don't do that any more.
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
It doesn't take much to be a successful artist-all you need to do is dedicate your entire life to it.
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
Keep your coins, I want change.
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
Nothing is black and white, and there is no purity and there is no such thing has justice.
Banksy
Live as a villain, die as a hero
Banksy
Graffiti is only dangerous in the mind of three types of people politicians, advertising executives and graffiti writers.
Banksy
There's nothing more dangerous than someone who wants to make the world a better place.
Banksy
If you are dirty, insignificant and unloved then rats are the ultimate role model.
Banksy
A lot of mothers will do anything for their children, except let them be themselves.
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
Fight the fighters, not their wars.
Banksy
I don't believe in anything. I'm just here for the violence.
Banksy
I need someone to protect me from all the measures they take in order to protect me.
Banksy
Some people represent authority without ever possessing any of their own.
Banksy
A lot of people never use their initiative because no-one told them to.
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.
