More quotes by David Bowie
I'm a phallus in pigtails, and there's blood on my nose, and my tissue is rotting where the rats chew my bones. And my eye sockets empty, see nothing but pain, I keep having this brainstorm about twelve times a day.
David Bowie
Wham, bam, thank you Ma'am.
David Bowie
They're the salt of the earth, those girls. They don't sit each night and compare notes on groups, criticising lyrics, asking if it's valid. They just play the record... yeah, and maybe they dance. I love them. I love them dearly
David Bowie
Comfort comes into your house first as guest, then as a host, then finally as the master.
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

David Bowie

David Bowie

David Bowie
Fame puts you there where things are hollow.
David Bowie
Sexuality and where it is going is an extraordinary question, for I don't see it going anywhere. It is with me, and that's it.
David Bowie
Who'll love Aladdin Sane? Battle cries and champagne just in time for sunrise.
David Bowie
The younger people get into the lyrics in a different way there's much more of a tactile understanding, which is the way I prefer it.
David Bowie
The character thing really is sort of, for me, personally, rather ancient history.
David Bowie
Strangely, some songs you really don't want to write.
David Bowie
Since early middle ages when people generally taking away the barbarity of their like, were pretty content. Although it was all an illicit contentment, what with the slave systems all over the world, in England especially, the peasants and the master, etc. People were incredibly content.
David Bowie
I went to a middle-class school, but my background is working class. I got the best of both worlds, I saw both classes, so I have a pretty fair idea of how people live and why they do it.
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
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
