More quotes by Damien Hirst

Damien Hirst
It'd be nice to make lots of money but it's quite difficult, because every time I make lots of money I make a bigger piece that costs lots of money.
Damien Hirst

Damien Hirst
I always ignore money.
Damien Hirst

Damien Hirst
I sometimes feel that I have nothing to say and I want to communicate this.

Damien Hirst
Artists are like everybody else.
Damien Hirst

Damien Hirst

Damien Hirst
Buy art, build a museum, put your name on it, let people in for free. That's as close as you can get to immortality.
Damien Hirst
It's amazing what you can do with an E in A-Level art, a twisted imagination and a chainsaw.
Damien Hirst
I think suicide is the most perfect thing you can do in life.
Damien Hirst
I wanted a shark that's big enough to eat you, and in a large enough amount of liquid so that you could imagine you were in there with it.
Damien Hirst
I liked The Beatles a lot when I was growing up.
Damien Hirst
When I used to do abstract paintings at school, like everyone else, the tutor said these would make great curtains. I would always neglect the formal stuff that was going on by using colour, because colour kind of came naturally to me.
