I find it easier to write in ...

I find it easier to write in these little vignettes; if I try to get any more heavy, I find myself out of my league.

David Bowie 397 quotes

People will keep the TV on ev...

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 397 quotes

You should turn around at the...

You should turn around at the end of the day and say I really like that piece of work, or that piece of work sucked. Not, was that popular or wasn't it popular?

David Bowie 397 quotes

Trying to tart the rock busin...

Trying to tart the rock business up a bit is getting nearer to what the kids themselves are like, because what I find, if you want to talk in the terms of rock, a lot depends on sensationalism and the kids are a lot more sensational than the stars themselves.

David Bowie 397 quotes

I was studying Tibetan Buddhi...

I was studying Tibetan Buddhism when I was quite young, again influenced by Kerouac.

David Bowie 397 quotes

One day in Berlin ... Eno cam...

One day in Berlin ... Eno came running in and said, 'I have heard the sound of the future.' ... he puts on 'I Feel Love', by Donna Summer ... He said, 'This is it, look no further. This single is going to change the sound of club music for the next fifteen years.' Which was more or less right.

David Bowie 397 quotes

You know, I don't feel fifty....

You know, I don't feel fifty. I feel not a day over forty-nine. It's incredible. I'm bouncy, I feel bouncy.

David Bowie 397 quotes

I always had a repulsive sort...

I always had a repulsive sort of need to be something more than human.

David Bowie 397 quotes

I don't like people probing i...

I don't like people probing into my life, so I reveal as little as possible or lie about it as much as need be so as to give them something to write about.

David Bowie 397 quotes

It's odd but even when I was ...

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 397 quotes

Hear this Robert Zimmerman, I...

Hear this Robert Zimmerman, I wrote a song for you, about a strange young man called Dylan with a voice like sand and glue.

David Bowie 397 quotes

And it's always the same kind...

And it's always the same kind of artist, I think, who has more enjoyment being slightly on the outside of things, who doesn't want to be sucked into the tyranny of the mainstream. Because once you get sucked into that, you're dead as an artist.

David Bowie 397 quotes

I haven't changed my views mu...

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 397 quotes

I could never, ever talk to m...

I could never, ever talk to my father. I really loved him, but we couldn't talk about anything together. There was this really British thing that being even remotely emotional was absolutely verboten.

David Bowie 397 quotes

I have to take total control ...

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 397 quotes

There's a thing that just as ...

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 397 quotes

Of course, we found out later...

Of course, we found out later Syd Barrett had mental problems. But there was something so otherworldly about him. He was hovering, like, six inches above the ground.

David Bowie 397 quotes

There's just some dysfunction...

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 397 quotes

I am a moderately good singer...

I am a moderately good singer. I am not a great singer but I can interpret a song, which I don't think is quite the same as singing it.

David Bowie 397 quotes

I think the first song I ever...

I think the first song I ever wrote ... was called "Can't Help Thinking About Me." That's an illuminating little piece, isn't it?
