[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.

All art is unstable. Its meaning is not necessarily that implied by the author. There is no authoritative voice. There are only multiple readings.
David Bowie

David Bowie
Image
I'm wary of the word glam because I think that became the all-inclusive term with for any bloke with lipstick on, which is fine, you know, and that's what it is when it comes down to the public level.
David Bowie
Image
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.

It's odd but even when I was a kid, I would write about 'old and other times' as though I had a lot of years behind me. Now I do, so there is a difference in the weight of memory.
David Bowie
Image
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

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.

Make the best of every moment. We're not evolving. We're not going anywhere.
