More quotes by David Bowie
When I heard Little Richard, I mean, it just set my world on fire.
David Bowie
Elvis is English, and climbs the hills. Can't tell the bullshit from the lies.
David Bowie
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
Wham, bam, thank you Ma'am.
David Bowie
Since the departure of good old-fashioned entertainers the re-emergence of somebody who wants to be an entertainer has unfortunately become a synonym for camp. I don't think I'm camper than any other person who felt at home on stage, and felt more at home on stage than he did offstage.
David Bowie
I want people to hear musicians like Joe Cuba. He has done things to whole masses of Puerto Rican people. The music is fantastic and important.
David Bowie
There was a time in America not long ago when rock 'n' roll was called race music, and white kids who wanted to go see Chuck Berry were completely forbidden.
David Bowie
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.
David Bowie
I really floated around in the '60s, because I felt comfortable with nothing.
David Bowie
I believe that I often bring out the best in somebody's talents.
David Bowie
It's not the side effects of the cocaine. . . . I'm thinking that it must be love.
David Bowie
Don’t you love the Oxford Dictionary? When I first read it, I thought it was a really really long poem about everything.
David Bowie
It took me a long time to reach the bottom and it went through various stages. I went from drugs into an alcohol stage. For a while, one feels, Ah, I've kicked drugs, but what I discovered was I had another addiction instead.
David Bowie
People don't get a chance to think, Why am I a consumer? Because the decisions come at them so fast and furiously, they're not [even] given time to think, I am a consumer.
David Bowie
The world that I inhabit in reality is probably very different world than the one people expect that I would be in. It is quite sedate. It's far removed from a lot of what they would feel to be the limousine traveling rock existence, or whatever.
David Bowie
I'm regarded quite asexually by a lot of people. And the people that understand me the best are nearer to what I understand about me.
David Bowie
On the other hand, what I like my music to do to me is awaken the ghosts inside of me. Not the demons, you understand, but the ghosts.
David Bowie
I don't live for the stage. I don't live for an audience.
David Bowie
I think the only music I didn't listen to was country and western, and that holds to this day.
David Bowie
Pixies and Sonic Youth were so important to the eighties.
