More quotes by David Bowie
I guess a certain contingent of the musicians in London at the beginning of the '70s were fed up with denim and the hippies. And I think we kind of wanted to go somewhere else.
David Bowie
I think that my fascination with clothes generally was motivated by trying to create the characters for the stage.
David Bowie
I haven't changed my views much since I was about 12, really, I've just got a 12-year-old mentality.When I was in school I had a brother who was into Kerouac and he gave me On The Road to read when I was 12 years old. That's still been a big influence.
David Bowie
I'm quite certain that the audience that I've got for my stuff don't listen to the lyrics.
David Bowie
Don't let me hear you say life takes you nowhere, angel.
David Bowie
I liked rock music, I kind of moved into that sphere, somehow thinking that somewhere along the line I'd be able to put the two together. And I suppose I very nearly did with the Ziggy character.
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
Listen to me, don't listen to me. Talk to me, don't talk to me.
David Bowie
Style is about the choices you make to create the aspects of civilization that you wish to uphold.
David Bowie
Fame puts you there where things are hollow.
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
Lou Reed is the most important definitive writer in modern rock. Not because of the stuff that he does, but the direction that he will take it.
David Bowie
It amazes me sometimes that even intelligent people will analyze a situation or make a judgement after only recognizing the standard or traditional structure of a piece.
David Bowie
Tony Visconti and I had been wanting to work together again for a few years now. Both of us had fairly large commitments and for a long time we couldn't see a space in which we could get anything together.
David Bowie
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
I think that we have created a new kind of person in a way. We have created a child who will be so exposed to the media that he will be lost to his parents by the time he is 12.
David Bowie
I have to take total control myself. I can't let anybody else do anything, for I find that I can do things better for me. I don't want to get other people playing with what they think that I'm trying to do.
David Bowie
In fact, everything I do is about the conceptualizing and realization of a piece of work, whether it's the recording or the performance side.
David Bowie
Funk, I don't think I have anything to do with funk. I've never considered myself funky.
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
