A quote by the artist banksy stating that the modern world is addicted to celebrity culture that seems to promote people who have no admirable qualities. It seems no one is happy in themselves if their not on bl***y television these days.

That's a very insightful observation by Banksy; it does seem that everybody these days can easily be made to be famous. He's also mis-quoting Andy Warhol who in 1979 stated that "In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes." which has certainly become true. Banksy is predicting a reversal of this trend.

I have been anonymous all my life and do not seek fame or even fortune happiness within one self is worth more.
Most of these so called fifteen mins of fame reality people are not happy they just think they are. As for the television what a load of poo on there who would want to be associated with that not me for sure to embarrased to even go there.

I don't have a problem with everyone having their 15 minutes in itself. It's just this craving for what people think is a celebrity lifestyle which doesn't actually exsist that I find scary.

He is just paraphrasing what Andy Warhol said many years ago when he talked about "everyone having 15 minutes of fame".
