I'm well past the age where I'm acceptable. You get to a certain age and you are forbidden access. You're not going to get the kind of coverage that you would like in music magazines, you're not going to get played on radio and you're not going to get played on television. I have to survive on word of mouth. David Bowie acceptableaccessage share on social

I never thought I would be such a family-oriented guy; I didn't think that was part of my makeup. But somebody said that as you get older, you become the person you always should have been, and I feel that's happening to me. David Bowie familyfeelguy share on social
Frankly, if I could get away with not having to perform, I'd be very happy. It's not my favorite thing to do. David Bowie favoritefranklyhappy Change image and share on social
I would dream. I focused all my attention on going to America. The subculture, James Dean, the rock n' roll, the beat writers. David Bowie americaattentionbeat Change image and share on social
Heathenism is a state of mind. You can take it that I'm referring to one who does not see his world. He has no mental light. He destroys almost unwittingly. He cannot feel any Gods presence in his life. He is the 21st century man. David Bowie 21stcenturydestroy share on social
Funk, I don't think I have anything to do with funk. I've never considered myself funky. David Bowie considerfunkfunky Change image and share on social
