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.

More quotes by David Bowie
Make the best of every moment. We're not evolving. We're not going anywhere.
David Bowie
I'm a born librarian with a sex drive.
David Bowie
TV has eaten up everything else, and Warhol films are all that are left, which is fabulous. Pork could become the next I Love Lucy, the great American domestic comedy. It's about how people really live, not like Lucy, who never touched dishwater. It's about people living and hustling to survive.
David Bowie
Elvis is English, and climbs the hills. Can't tell the bullshit from the lies.
David Bowie
There's just some dysfunctionalism with artists. There are good things and bad things about being an artist, and the good thing is, sometimes you get an inside line on what's really happening. You develop these strange antennae that clue you in to what's really going on.
David Bowie
I'm just an individual who doesn't feel that I need to have somebody qualify my work in any particular way. I'm working for me.
David Bowie
There's a terror in knowing what the world is about
David Bowie
There have been times when I've written something and it goes out and it comes back in a letter from some kid as to what they think about it and I've taken their analysis to heart so much that I have taken up his thing. Writing what my audience is telling me to write.
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
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
She's a total bam bam.
David Bowie
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go.
David Bowie
I'm very shy. That's probably one of the reasons I got so heavily into drugs.
David Bowie
Listen to me, don't listen to me. Talk to me, don't talk to me.
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.
David Bowie
Ground control to Major Tom.
David Bowie
A song has to take on character, shape, body and influence people to an extent that they use it for their own devices. It must affect them not just as a song, but as a lifestyle. The rock stars have assimilated all kinds of philosophies, styles, histories, writings, and they throw out what they have gleaned from that.
David Bowie
For here Am I sitting in a tin can, Far above the world. Planet Earth is blue, And there's nothing I can do.
David Bowie
It is amazing how a new child can refocus one's direction seconds after its birth. Everything falls into a feeling of 'rightness'.
David Bowie
Pixies and Sonic Youth were so important to the eighties.
