More quotes by David Bowie
I wanted to prove the sustaining power of music.
David Bowie
I never could get over the fact that The Pixies formed, worked and separated without America taking them to its heart or even recognizing their existence for the most part.
David Bowie
It took me a long time to reach the bottom and it went through various stages. I went from drugs into an alcohol stage. For a while, one feels, Ah, I've kicked drugs, but what I discovered was I had another addiction instead.
David Bowie
A lot of people that I know are bugged with the idea that they have got to have an audience, or they have got to be liked. I think the more that you fall into that trap it makes your own life harder to come to terms with, because an audience appreciation is only going to be periodic at the best of times.
David Bowie
People don't get a chance to think, Why am I a consumer? Because the decisions come at them so fast and furiously, they're not [even] given time to think, I am a consumer.
David Bowie
Everywhere I looked, demons of the future [were] on the battlegrounds of one’s emotional plane.
David Bowie
Comfort comes into your house first as guest, then as a host, then finally as the master.
David Bowie
I don't expect the human race to progress in too many areas. However, having a child with an ear infection makes one hugely grateful for antibiotics.
David Bowie
It's odd but even when I was a kid, I would write about 'old and other times' as though I had a lot of years behind me. Now I do, so there is a difference in the weight of memory.
David Bowie
The absolute transformation of everything that we ever thought about music will take place within 10 years, and nothing is going to be able to stop it. I see absolutely no point in pretending that it's not going to happen. I'm fully confident that copyright, for instance, will no longer exist in 10 years.
David Bowie
If I wasn't going through a thing where I was also being my characters offstage, uh, I'm much happier just wearing the most low-profile things that I can come up with just so I can get down the street.
David Bowie
I've been putting out the fire with gasoline.
David Bowie
I think much has been made of this alter ego business. I mean, I actually stopped creating characters in 1975 - for albums, anyway.
David Bowie
I was studying Tibetan Buddhism when I was quite young, again influenced by Kerouac.
David Bowie
Questioning my spiritual life has always been germane to what I was writing. Always. It's because I'm not quite an atheist and it worries me. There's that little bit that holds on: 'Well, I'm almost an atheist. Give me a couple of months.'
David Bowie
There's a starman waiting in the sky, he'd like to come and meet us, but he thinks he'd blow our minds.
David Bowie
When the musical keyboard was created in the 1970's, you had electronic geeks that had no background in music created these devises and gave them to musicians that had no background in electronics. The result was some of the wierd sounds that came out in the '70s.
David Bowie
Listen to me, don't listen to me. Talk to me, don't talk to me.
David Bowie
I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years.
David Bowie
I just tried everything out - I mean, everything. Even my sexual orientation I was just searching for what I really wanted. And I didn't quite know.
David Bowie
