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.

More quotes by David Bowie
It was fun to be clever.
David Bowie
Songwriting as an art is a bit archaic now. Just writing a song is not good enough.
David Bowie
People will keep the TV on even if a show is on that they hate - because, unfortunately, they've been programmed to do that.
David Bowie
He says he's a beautician and sells you nutrition, and keeps all your dead hair for making underwear.
David Bowie
There seem to be a lot of black artists making very good videos that I'm surprised aren't being used on MTV.
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
I got a bad migraine that lasted 3 years, and the pills I took made by fingers disappear.
David Bowie
I don't live for the stage. I don't live for an audience.
David Bowie
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
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 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
I'm a blackstar. I'm a blackstar.
David Bowie
Hey man, I gotta straighten my face. This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place.
David Bowie
It is amazing how a new child can refocus one's direction seconds after its birth. Everything falls into a feeling of 'rightness'.
David Bowie
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
I'm bemused by the whole Robbie Williams aspect of British pop. Posh Spice? It all looks like cruise ship entertainment to me.
David Bowie
Never bored, so I'll never get old
David Bowie
Once you lose that sense of wonder at being alive, you're pretty much on the way out.
David Bowie
I think Lindsay Kemp really introduced me to the work of Jean Genet, and through that, I kind of kept re-educating myself about other prose writers and poets.
David Bowie
Is it Nice in your snowstorm- freezing your brain? Do you think that your face looks the same?
David Bowie
