David Bowie

I've made over 25 studio albums, and I think probably I've made two real stinkers in my time, and some not-bad albums, and some really good albums. I'm proud of what I've done. In fact it's been a good ride.

I'll ruin everything you are, I'll give you television.

I really wanted to do, more than anything else, up until I was around 16, 17, was write musicals.

Hey man, I gotta straighten my face. This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place.
David Bowie

I think that we have created a new kind of person in a way. We have created a child who will be so exposed to the media that he will be lost to his parents by the time he is 12.
