More quotes by David Bowie
Church on time, makes me party.
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'm not at ease with the word love.
David Bowie
[While] my life started taking on all the problems of addiction. So that took me off into an area where relationships were absolutely impossible to handle on any real level. . . . Even communicating with other people was impossible.
David Bowie
I think Mick Jagger would be astounded and amazed if he realized that to many people he is not a sex symbol, but a mother image.
David Bowie
I woke up one day and realized I was a closet hetero
David Bowie
I re-invented my image so many times that I'm in denial that I was originally an overweight Korean woman.
David Bowie
I think a lot of that album [Tonight ] is still very good . . . the songs, but I think I was indifferent to the arrangements.
David Bowie
Don't let me hear you say life takes you nowhere, angel.
David Bowie
If I wasn't going through a thing where I was also being my characters offstage, uh, I'm much happier just wearing the most low-profile things that I can come up with just so I can get down the street.
David Bowie
I'll stick with you baby for a thousand years.
David Bowie
Oooh, fashion, we are the goon squad and were coming to town, beep beep.
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
You can neither win nor lose if you don't run the race
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
If you feel safe in the area you’re working in, you’re not working in the right area. Always go a little further into the water than you feel you’re capable of being in. Go a little bit out of your depth. And when you don’t feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, you’re just about in the right place to do something exciting.
David Bowie
The sun machine is coming down, and we're gonna have a party.
David Bowie
Hitler was the first superstar.
David Bowie
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
He says he's a beautician and sells you nutrition, and keeps all your dead hair for making underwear.
David Bowie
