More quotes by Damien Hirst

• "I always feel like the art's there and I just see it, so it's not really a lot of work."

• "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."
