Fame puts you there where things are hollow.

I haven't changed my views much since I was about 12, really, I've just got a 12-year-old mentality.When I was in school I had a brother who was into Kerouac and he gave me On The Road to read when I was 12 years old. That's still been a big influence.

The absolute transformation of everything that we ever thought about music will take place within 10 years, and nothing is going to be able to stop it. I see absolutely no point in pretending that it's not going to happen. I'm fully confident that copyright, for instance, will no longer exist in 10 years.

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

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

Religion is for people who fear hell, spirituality is for people who have been there.
David Bowie
Image
I don't like to read things that people write about me. I'd rather read what kids have to say about me, because it's not their profession to do that.
David Bowie
Image
In fact, everything I do is about the conceptualizing and realization of a piece of work, whether it's the recording or the performance side.
David Bowie
Image
Secret thinker sometimes listening aloud.
David Bowie
Image
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

The minute you know you're on safe ground, you're dead.

There's a starman waiting in the sky, he'd like to come and meet us, but he thinks he'd blow our minds.
