Banksy

"Graffiti's always been a temporary art form. You make your mark and then they scrub it off."

"Should graffiti be judged on the same level as modern art? Of course not: It's way more important than that."

"At this time of year it's easy to forget the true meaning of Christianity - the lies, the corruption, the abuse."

"Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable."

"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."

"The thing I hate the most about advertising is that it attracts all the bright, creative and ambitious young people, leaving us mainly with the slow and self-obsessed to become our artists.. Modern art is a disaster area. Never in the field of human history has so much been used by so many to say so little."
