More quotes by David Bowie
I've made over 25 studio albums, and I think probably I've made two real stinkers in my time, and some not-bad albums, and some really good albums. I'm proud of what I've done. In fact it's been a good ride.
David Bowie
The minute you know you're on safe ground, you're dead.
David Bowie
I was studying Tibetan Buddhism when I was quite young, again influenced by Kerouac.
David Bowie
It is amazing how a new child can refocus one's direction seconds after its birth. Everything falls into a feeling of 'rightness'.
David Bowie
You can neither win nor lose if you don't run the race
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
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
Strangely, some songs you really don't want to write.
David Bowie
I probably also wanted to be black at that particular time [ 9 years old] as well.
David Bowie
I liked rock music, I kind of moved into that sphere, somehow thinking that somewhere along the line I'd be able to put the two together. And I suppose I very nearly did with the Ziggy character.
David Bowie
Since the departure of good old-fashioned entertainers the re-emergence of somebody who wants to be an entertainer has unfortunately become a synonym for camp. I don't think I'm camper than any other person who felt at home on stage, and felt more at home on stage than he did offstage.
David Bowie
Things have to hit for the moment. That's one of the reasons I'm into video the image has to hit immediately. I adore video and the whole cutting up of it.
David Bowie
Speak in extremes, it'll save you time.
David Bowie
I'm a phallus in pigtails, and there's blood on my nose, and my tissue is rotting where the rats chew my bones. And my eye sockets empty, see nothing but pain, I keep having this brainstorm about twelve times a day.
David Bowie
I'm afraid of Americans I'm afraid of the world I'm afraid I can't help it.
David Bowie
Since early middle ages when people generally taking away the barbarity of their like, were pretty content. Although it was all an illicit contentment, what with the slave systems all over the world, in England especially, the peasants and the master, etc. People were incredibly content.
David Bowie
I had a fantasy that i'd drift up to Scotland and spend my life as a faux bodhisattua.
David Bowie
For me a chameleon is something that disguises itself to look as much like its environment as possible. I always thought I did exactly the opposite of that.
David Bowie
They're the salt of the earth, those girls. They don't sit each night and compare notes on groups, criticising lyrics, asking if it's valid. They just play the record... yeah, and maybe they dance. I love them. I love them dearly
David Bowie
I think a lot of that album [Tonight ] is still very good . . . the songs, but I think I was indifferent to the arrangements.
David Bowie
