David Bowie
Image

Illusion I will be, for I've never been a sinner.
David Bowie
Image
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.

The only art I'll ever study is stuff I can steal from.
David Bowie

I'm a blackstar. I'm a blackstar.
David Bowie
Image
I'm regarded quite asexually by a lot of people. And the people that understand me the best are nearer to what I understand about me.
David Bowie
Image
Hey man, I gotta straighten my face. This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place.
David Bowie

Wham, bam, thank you Ma'am.
