Quotes by David Bowie

— David Bowie
The truth is of course is that there is no journey. We are arriving and departing all at the same time.
— David Bowie
I always had a repulsive need to be something more than human.
— David Bowie
It would be my guess that Madonna is not a very happy woman. From my own experience, having gone through persona changes like that, that kind of clawing need to be the center of attention is not a pleasant place to be.
— David Bowie
Fame itself… doesn’t really afford you anything more than a good seat in a restaurant.
— David Bowie
