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.

More quotes by Banksy
Graffiti is one of the few tools you have if you have almost nothing.
Banksy
Nothing in the world is more common than unsuccessful people with talent, leave the house before you find something worth staying in for.
Banksy
If at first you don't succeed, Call an airstrike.
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
Fight the fighters, not their wars.
Banksy
I wanted to highlight the destruction in Gaza by posting photos on my website - but on the internet, people only look at pictures of kittens.
Banksy
I originally set out to try and save the world, but now I'm not sure I like it enough.
Banksy
I don't believe in anything. I'm just here for the violence.
Banksy
Keep your coins, I want change.
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
Become good at cheating and you never need to become good at anything else.
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
We don’t need any more heroes we just need someone to take out the recycling.
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
Some people represent authority without ever possessing any of their own.
Banksy
You owe the companies nothing. You especially don't owe them any courtesy. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don't even start asking for theirs.
Banksy
You're advised not to drink the replica Arab spring water.
Banksy
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.
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.
