Quotes by Damien Hirst
Fame is a hollow thing.
The spot paintings are about infinity.
I don't believe in God, but I believe in art.
Success is a poison.
The diamond skull is about value.
I'm obsessed with death.
Art should shock.
Love is the ultimate drug.
I paint spots to escape.
Happiness is fleeting.
The market is mad.
I fear nothing but boredom.
Medicine cabinets are about vulnerability.
Truth is stranger than fiction.
I'm a collector at heart.
The formaldehyde works preserve life.
Ambition drives me.
Art is eternal.
I joke about death to cope.
The butterfly paintings are about transformation.
