Time may change me, but I can't trace time.

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!
David Bowie
Image
I'm not a prophet or a stone aged man, just a mortal with potential of a superman. I'm living on.
David Bowie
Image
I just tried everything out - I mean, everything. Even my sexual orientation I was just searching for what I really wanted. And I didn't quite know.
David Bowie
Image
Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth.
David Bowie
Image
To be taken seriously about doing something creative and probably travel a lot. That was my motivation. I knew I was good, I knew I could write. I also knew you could get laid really easily.
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.

Who'll love Aladdin Sane? Battle cries and champagne just in time for sunrise.
