I got a bad migraine that lasted 3 years, and the pills I took made by fingers disappear.
David Bowie
Image
There, in the chords and melodies, is everything I want to say. The words just jolly it along. It's always been my way of expressing what for me is inexpressible by any other means.
David Bowie

Feeling so gay, feeling so gay.

Speak in extremes, it'll save you time.
David Bowie

You can neither win nor lose if you don't run the race
David Bowie

Sexuality and where it is going is an extraordinary question, for I don't see it going anywhere. It is with me, and that's it.
David Bowie
Image
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.
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.

This is a mad planet, David Bowie said in 1971. It's doomed to madness.
David Bowie
Image
Don't let me hear you say life takes you nowhere, angel.
David Bowie
Image
I re-invented my image so many times that I'm in denial that I was originally an overweight Korean woman.
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
Image
I find only freedom in the realms of eccentricity.
David Bowie
Image
When I was going through those very fast changes, I think it was terribly important to me that I was seen to be inventive. I think that was the characteristic of my work that I wanted people to see.
David Bowie
Image
I'm very shy. That's probably one of the reasons I got so heavily into drugs.
David Bowie
Image
You can begin really looking for a relationship . . . when you can (appreciate) the whole concept of giving to someone, not just taking.
David Bowie
Image
Secret thinker sometimes listening aloud.
David Bowie
Image
There have been times when I've written something and it goes out and it comes back in a letter from some kid as to what they think about it and I've taken their analysis to heart so much that I have taken up his thing. Writing what my audience is telling me to write.
