More quotes by Damien Hirst
I always feel like the art's there and I just see it, so it's not really a lot of work.
Damien Hirst
It's ridiculous what I do. I can't believe in it - but I have to.
Damien Hirst
I mean, people listen to music, and they like that, but I think in England, a lot of people don't like contemporary art.
Damien Hirst
I don't really have a career plan.
Damien Hirst
I did a load of medicine cabinets a long time ago and I named them after Sex Pistols songs. I suppose I must be getting old if I'm naming work after Philip Larkin poems.
Damien Hirst
As an artist, you don't stop making art because people are not buying it.
Damien Hirst
I'm 43. I'm not ready to sit down in a chair with my name on it yet.
Damien Hirst
I just hope that I can be kind of like the Beatles. I really like that kind of model. I like the way that without losing integrity they could change through fashion and not look back at the '60s and vomit when they saw what they'd done.
Damien Hirst
I have always been aware that you have to get people listening before you can change their minds. Any artist's big fear is being ignored, so if you get debate, that's great.
Damien Hirst
The best spot painting you can have by me is one painted by Rachel.
Damien Hirst
Since I was a child, death is definitely something that I think about every day. But I think that everybody does. You try and avoid it, but it's such a big thing that you can't.
Damien Hirst
I can't wait to get into a position to make really bad art and get away with it. At the moment if I did certain things people would look at it, consider it and then say f off. But after a while you can get away with things.
Damien Hirst
I have titles floating around in my head I have sculptures floating around in my head. It's like a collage.
Damien Hirst
I liked The Beatles a lot when I was growing up.
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
Here's one from me: 'You have to be aware that everyone else is thinking far too hard about themselves to be thinking about you, whoever you are.' If you want it, you can have it. Once you know that, you can be free.
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.
Damien Hirst
There's always something you missed or something you didn't notice or somehow you got wrong... I don't really have a beginning.
Damien Hirst
The spot paintings, the spin paintings, they're all a mechanical way to avoid the actual guy in a room, myself, with a blank canvas.
Damien Hirst
I've never learned to drive because I get lots of ideas when I'm a passenger in a car. I love to get in a car with a driver and just think and work things out.
Damien Hirst
