More quotes by David Bowie
I have found myself deeply, deeply intrigued by the ska-punk scene. It's such an expressive form of popular music, it's so real, it's got so much life: it's the most vital music in the world.
David Bowie
I think the only music I didn't listen to was country and western, and that holds to this day.
David Bowie
Style is about the choices you make to create the aspects of civilization that you wish to uphold.
David Bowie
I'm not sure that an art career would have any benefit for me I'm not sure it's what I want. I don't think I want to be a designer-rock artist.
David Bowie
The moment you know you know you know.
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
I'm very shy. That's probably one of the reasons I got so heavily into drugs.
David Bowie
My particular thing is discovering what can be done with media and how it can be used. You can't draw people together like one big huge family, people don't want that. They want isolation or a tribal thing.
David Bowie
With Let's Dance, there was actually a chance that I was actually going to be able to keep the money I had made.
David Bowie
I got a bad migraine that lasted 3 years, and the pills I took made by fingers disappear.
David Bowie
Comfort comes into your house first as guest, then as a host, then finally as the master.
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
She's a total bam bam.
David Bowie
The sun machine is coming down, and we're gonna have a party.
David Bowie
There's a thing that just as you go to sleep, if you keep your elbows elevated that you will never go below the dream stage. And I've used that quite a lot and it keeps me dreaming much longer than if I just relaxed.
David Bowie
If you come from art, you'll always be art.
David Bowie
Having not really written any generational songs - I think maybe two or three of the songs that I've ever written have any bearing on the age of the listener. My stuff tends to be far more concerned with the spiritual and with subjects like isolation and being miserable.
David Bowie
You can begin really looking for a relationship . . . when you can (appreciate) the whole concept of giving to someone, not just taking.
David Bowie
He says he's a beautician and sells you nutrition, and keeps all your dead hair for making underwear.
David Bowie
Questioning my spiritual life has always been germane to what I was writing. Always. It's because I'm not quite an atheist and it worries me. There's that little bit that holds on: 'Well, I'm almost an atheist. Give me a couple of months.'
David Bowie
