“People seem to think if they dress like a revolutionary they don`t actually have to behave like one.”

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.

Graffiti is one of the few tools you have if you have almost nothing.

Fight the fighters, not their wars.

I tell myself I use art to promote dissent, but maybe I am just using dissent to promote my art. I plead not guilty to selling out. But I plead it from a bigger house than I used to live in.

You can win the rat race but you’re still a rat.

I don’t believe in anything. I’m just here for the violence.

I wanted to highlight the destruction in Gaza by posting photos on my website – but on the internet, people only look at pictures of kittens.

If it doesn’t matter, get rid of it. If you can’t get rid of it, it matters.

A lot of people never use their initiative because no-one told them to.

Graffiti is one of the few tools you have if you have almost nothing. And even if you don’t come up with a picture to cure world poverty you can make someone smile while they’re having a piss.

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.

Bus stops are far more interesting and useful places to have art than in museums.

All artists are willing to suffer for their work. But why are so few prepared to learn to draw?

Nobody knows what you feel inside unless you tell them.

If you want to say something and have people listen then you have to wear a mask. If you want to be honest then you have to live a lie.

Gaza is often described as ‘the world’s largest open air prison’ because no-one is allowed to enter or leave. But that seems a bit unfair to prisons – they don’t have their electricity and drinking water cut off randomly almost every day.

The way you dress is the billboard that tells perceptive people how you feel about yourself.

One of the most courageous things we do is change. If everyone says you’re wonderful every time you wear a red dress, and you change to yellow, that takes courage.

I had decided early on that if I couldn’t dress elegant, I’d dress memorable.

In the matter of dress one should always keep below one’s ability.

Nakedness reveals itself. Nudity is placed on display. The nude is condemned to never being naked. Nudity is a form of dress.

If you can’t dress expensive, dress memorable.

When I turned 50, I looked in the mirror and I thought: “Hey, this isn’t the dress rehearsal, this is life and I don’t know how much longer I’m going to have!”

Meditation is a dress rehearsal for death.
