I probably also wanted to be black at that particular time [ 9 years old] as well.
David Bowie

And it's always the same kind of artist, I think, who has more enjoyment being slightly on the outside of things, who doesn't want to be sucked into the tyranny of the mainstream. Because once you get sucked into that, you're dead as an artist.
David Bowie

Secret thinker sometimes listening aloud.
David Bowie
Image
Love is every type of relationship that you think of... I'm sure it means relationship, every type of relationship that you can think of.
David Bowie
Image
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
Image
You can't go on stage and live - it's false all the way. I can't stand the premise of going out in jeans and a guitar and looking as real as you can in front of 18,000 people. I mean, it's not normal!

Everywhere I looked, demons of the future [were] on the battlegrounds of one’s emotional plane.

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.

She asked for my love and I gave her a dangerous mind.
David Bowie

I got a bad migraine that lasted 3 years, and the pills I took made by fingers disappear.
David Bowie
Image
Hey man, I gotta straighten my face. This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place.
David Bowie
Image
I believe that I often bring out the best in somebody's talents.
David Bowie
Image
I felt I really wanted to back off from music completely and just work within the visual arts in some way. I started painting quite passionately at that time.
David Bowie

Who'll love Aladdin Sane? Battle cries and champagne just in time for sunrise.
David Bowie
Image
I suppose for me as an artist it wasn't always just about expressing my work I really wanted, more than anything else, to contribute in some way to the culture that I was living in. It just seemed like a challenge to move it a little bit towards the way I thought it might be interesting to go.

Religion is for people who fear hell, spirituality is for people who have been there.
David Bowie

Tomorrow belongs to those who can hear it coming.
David Bowie

It's only forever... Not long at all.

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

What I do is I write mainly about very personal and rather lonely feelings, and I explore them in a different way each time. You know, what I do is not terribly intellectual. I'm a pop singer for Christ's sake. As a person, I'm fairly uncomplicated.
