It was fun to be clever.
David Bowie

Music itself is going to become like running water or electricity. So it's like, just take advantage of these last few years because none of this is ever going to happen again. You'd better be prepared for doing a lot of touring because that's really the only unique situation that's going to be left.
David Bowie
Image
I'm very shy. That's probably one of the reasons I got so heavily into drugs.
David Bowie
Image
I don't have stylistic loyalty. That's why people perceive me changing all the time. But there is a real continuity in my subject matter. As an artist of artifice, I do believe I have more integrity than any one of my contemporaries.
David Bowie
Image
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

Once you lose that sense of wonder at being alive, you're pretty much on the way out.

There's just some dysfunctionalism with artists. There are good things and bad things about being an artist, and the good thing is, sometimes you get an inside line on what's really happening. You develop these strange antennae that clue you in to what's really going on.

Tomorrow belongs to those who can hear it coming.
David Bowie
Image
I spent so much time in my bedroom. It really was my entire world. I had books up there, my music up there, my record player. Going from my world upstairs out onto the street, I had to pass through this no-man's-land of the living room, you know, and out the front hall.
David Bowie
Image
I'm not a natural performer. I don't like performing very much.
David Bowie
Image
I think that my fascination with clothes generally was motivated by trying to create the characters for the stage.
David Bowie
Image
I'm just an individual who doesn't feel that I need to have somebody qualify my work in any particular way. I'm working for me.
David Bowie
Image
I think it all comes back to being very selfish as an artist. I mean, I really do just write and record what interests me and I do approach the stage shows in much the same way.
David Bowie
Image
I'm afraid of Americans I'm afraid of the world I'm afraid I can't help it.
David Bowie

I think every time I said, I'm working with Nile [Rodgers], the reaction was, Oh, great. I love 'Let's Dance.' I think that's pretty expected. I'm not sure Nile and I went in consciously not to make Let's Dance. We just wanted to work together again.

Strangely, some songs you really don't want to write.

I can't keep my fingers out of any pies.

I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years.
