More quotes by Damien Hirst
The best spot painting you can have by me is one painted by Rachel.
Damien Hirst
But I think it's more that when you're young, you're invincible, you're immortal - or at least you think you are. The possibilities are limitless, you're inventing the future. Then you get older and suddenly you have a history. It's fixed. You can't change anything. I find that a bit disturbing, to be honest.
Damien Hirst
But for me, from my point of view, I don't mind if it falls over... if you break the glass you replace the glass, if the sheep falls out you can always get a new sheep.
Damien Hirst
I can't understand why most people believe in medicine and don't believe in art, without questioning either.
Damien Hirst
I don't really have a career plan.
Damien Hirst
I was brought up Catholic, and I felt the power of art from a very young age - seeing the brutality of all those images of flayed apostles and tortured saints was a pretty strong introduction.
Damien Hirst
You've got to be able to copy things faithfully before you can deviate.
Damien Hirst
I love art. It is uplifting.
Damien Hirst
When we are no longer children, we are already dead.
Damien Hirst
The idea is more important than the object.
Damien Hirst
It's such a crass idea - you're either in love or out of love.
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 liked The Beatles a lot when I was growing up.
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 like the confusion you get between science and religion … that’s where belief lies and art as well.
Damien Hirst
I sometimes feel that I have nothing to say and I want to communicate this.
Damien Hirst
Immortality is really desirable, I guess. In terms of images, anyway.
Damien Hirst
I'm 43. I'm not ready to sit down in a chair with my name on it yet.
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
I think as an artist you have to reinvent yourself every day.
Damien Hirst
