I wanted to prove the sustaining power of music. – David Bowie

Music itself is going to become like running water or electricity. So its like, just take advantage of these last few years because none of this is ever going to happen again. Youd better be prepared for doing a lot of touring because thats really the only unique situation thats going to be left. – David Bowie
Theres a schizoid streak within the family anyway so I dare say that Im affected by that. The majority of the people in my family have been in some kind of mental institution, as for my brother he doesnt want to leave. He likes it very much. – David Bowie
