More quotes by David Bowie
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go.
David Bowie
Would you carry a razor, in case, just in case of depression?
David Bowie
I really floated around in the '60s, because I felt comfortable with nothing.
David Bowie
Strangely, some songs you really don't want to write.
David Bowie
We slit the Catholic throat, stoned the poor on such slogans as wish you could hear and love is all we need.
David Bowie
Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Weird and Gilly.
David Bowie
Some make you sing and some make you scream. One makes you wish that you'd never been seen. But there's a shop on the corner that's selling papier mache, making bullet-proof faces, Charlie Manson, Cassius Clay. If you want it, boys, get it here, thing.
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

David Bowie
Secret thinker sometimes listening aloud.
David Bowie
Style is about the choices you make to create the aspects of civilization that you wish to uphold.
David Bowie
The character thing really is sort of, for me, personally, rather ancient history.
David Bowie
I guess a certain contingent of the musicians in London at the beginning of the '70s were fed up with denim and the hippies. And I think we kind of wanted to go somewhere else.
David Bowie
I'll ruin everything you are, I'll give you television.
David Bowie
The younger people get into the lyrics in a different way there's much more of a tactile understanding, which is the way I prefer it.
David Bowie
I don't believe in proper cinema it doesn't have the strength of television. People having to go out to the cinema is really archaic. I'd much rather sit at home.
David Bowie
I never really got the book together for the thing, so I had all the songs and the characters. But by the time we'd gotten it on the road and I'd been doing it for 18 months, oh God, I couldn't wait to move on to something else.
David Bowie
On the other hand, what I like my music to do to me is awaken the ghosts inside of me. Not the demons, you understand, but the ghosts.
David Bowie
Listen to me, don't listen to me. Talk to me, don't talk to me.
David Bowie
I believe that I often bring out the best in somebody's talents.
David Bowie
