A quotation from Banksy

   The human race is an unfair and stupid competition. A lot of the runners don’t even get decent sneakers or clean drinking water.
   Some runners are born with a massive head start, every possible help along the way and still the referees seem to be on their side.
   It’s not surprising a lot of people have given up competing altogether and gone to sit in the grandstand, eat junk food and shout abuse.
   What we need in this race is a lot more streakers.

Banksy (b. 1974?) England-based pseudonymous street artist, political activist, film director
