You Can Win The Rat Race But

On Painting Rats, And The Glorification Of Them. They Exist Without Permission. They Are Hated, Hunted And Persecuted. They Live In Quiet Desperation Amongst The Filth. And Yet They Are Capable Of Bringing Entire Civilizations To Their Knees. If You Are Dirty, Insignificant, And Unloved Then Rats Are The Ultimate Role Model.

The People Who Run Our Cities Dont Understand Graffiti Because They Think Nothing Has The Right To Exist Unless It Makes A Profit... The People Who Truly Deface Our Neighborhoods Are The Companies That Scrawl Giant Slogans Across Buildings And Buses Trying To Make Us Feel Inadequate Unless We Buy Their Stuff.... Any Advertisement In Public Space That Gives You No Choice Whether You See It Or Not Is Yours, It Belongs To You ,, Its Yours To Take, Rearrange And Re Use.asking For Permission Is Like Asking To Keep A Rock Someone Just Threw At Your Head.

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.
