hile graffiti can be perceived as a renegade creative art form, most regard it as an unwanted nuisance. Property owners deem it expensive vandalism requiring repair, and many people believe that the presence of graffiti contributes to an environment of squalor and crime.
Some “patrons” advocate graffiti should be considered a legitimate art form subject to commercialization. Many graffiti artists have taken to displaying their works in galleries and owning their own studios. It doesn't seem like that activity can be labeled graffiti anymore.
“I used to be indecisive; now I'm not sure.
Time is an illusion perpetrated by the manufacturers of space.
I'd give my right arm to be ambidextrous.” Graffiti quotes

"A musician must make music,
an artist must paint, a poet must write,
if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself.
What one can be, one must be." - Abraham Maslow
"Live a balanced life -
Learn some and think some,
and draw and paint and
sing and dance and play and
work every day some." - Robert Fulghum
