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.

More quotes by Banksy
Become good at cheating and you never need to become good at anything else.
Banksy
A lot of mothers will do anything for their children, except let them be themselves.
Banksy
We can't do anything to change the world until capitalism crumbles. In the meantime we should all go shopping to console ourselves.
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
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
Should # graffiti be judged on the same level as modern art? Of course not: It's way more important than that
Banksy
I am unable to comment on who may or may not be Banksy, but anyone described as 'good at drawing' doesn't sound like Banksy to me.
Banksy
Brandalism Any advertisement in public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It belongs to you. It's yours to take, rearrange and re-use. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.
Banksy
Live as a villain, die as a hero
Banksy
If it doesn’t matter, get rid of it. If you can’t get rid of it, it matters.
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
You're advised not to drink the replica Arab spring water.
Banksy
Graffiti is one of the few tools you have if you have almost nothing.
Banksy
You can win the rat race but you're still a rat.
Banksy
Bus stops are far more interesting and useful places to have art than in museums.
Banksy
Painting something that defies the law of the land is good. Painting something that defies the law of the land and the law of gravity at the same time is ideal.
Banksy
If at first you don't succeed, Call an airstrike.
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.
Banksy
In the future, everybody will be anonymous for 15 minutes.
Banksy
All artists are willing to suffer for their work. But why are so few prepared to learn to draw?
