David Quotes

Up against Goliath, to bring butter home. I’m David on pavement, sling another stone Picture Quote #1

Remember to remember: sometimes your adversary is your biggest asset. Where would David be without Goliath? Jesus without Judas? Picture Quote #1

I do not use the word ‘genius’ lightly, but if David Bowie is not a genius, then there is no such thing Picture Quote #1

I didn’t know much about him, and I wasn’t a big country music fan. I listened to the Beatles and David Bowie, so I didn’t know a lot about him Picture Quote #1

How could 30 years be the blink-of-the-eye it felt? It was the difference between black-and-white footage of the Second World War and David Bowie on ‘Top of the Pops’ singing ‘Life on Mars.’ Picture Quote #1

It’s fun to look at people that are so good at acting that aren’t actors, like David Bowie creating a mystique about rock n’ roll. I’ve listened to ‘Ziggy Stardust’ as much as any rock n’ roll fan - I don’t really know what it’s about, but it sure is fun to think about David Bowie as this mad creation Picture Quote #1

His names is David Bowie and he’s nineteen. Would yoy like to meet him~? Picture Quote #1

Whatever. Everyone mispronounces my name. And, like, David Bowie was big before I was born, right? Picture Quote #1

I’d like to go for people I admire - I always gravitate towards the people I idolized when I was a teenager: Cher, Diana Ross, and David Bowie Picture Quote #1

I’m not David Bowie. Who are we kidding? At the end of the day, I’m the same person I’ve always been. I’m Don Garvey’s son from up the road Picture Quote #1

If anybody won life, David Bowie did, at least as a creative entity in the sense of writing yourself into existence and writing yourself out in such a graceful swoop Picture Quote #1

Prince didn’t want to sound like Michael Jackson. Neither of them wanted to sound like Luther Vandross. They didn’t want to sound like David Bowie. They were all different, but brilliant Picture Quote #1

David Bowie used to cover loads of people, and there was an element of David Bowie did it, so we wanted to do it, because we’re kind of obsessed [with him] Picture Quote #1

I would probably say David Bowie and Prince are the perfect people. They dress feminine/masculine and they’re really sexy. Not many people can wear high heels and look sexier than a woman! Picture Quote #1

I knew about things like Iggy Pop and The Velvet Underground, weirdly, before I knew about David Bowie. I didn’t know what David Bowie was, when I was a kid. I thought he was like Visage Picture Quote #1

David Bowie’s music is a moving target. Just when you think you got the bullseye, it shifts. And to his credit, on to death, it’s still shifting. David Bowie is a moving target, even after he’s gone Picture Quote #1

With the groups who asked me to join them - like the Rolling Stones, Spirit, David Bowie, and Blood, Sweat and Tears - I said no right away because I was way too much into my own thing Picture Quote #1

I’ve spent three hours with Snoop Dogg, talking about how he loved [Peaky Blinders series]. And David Bowie loved it. The late Leonard Cohen was a fan. It struck a chord with various people that I didn’t think it would Picture Quote #1

I saw Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd, which I thought was a masterpiece. Not that long ago, I listened to Blackstar by David Bowie and thought that was a masterpiece. Those are two incredibly talented people who’ve left their mark with us Picture Quote #1

I need to do a concert to celebrate David Bowie’s electronic music. And in so doing, I’m not taking a step back, I’m taking a step forward and presenting it in its entirety so people can understand this type of visionary Picture Quote #1

If I can get that DAM trio back together again - get the band back together - and put on a concert of David Bowie’s electronic music, that’s the way I want to remember David, moving forward into the future of music Picture Quote #1

David Bowie is the quintessential English gentleman and, of course, a musical and generational institution. I only played support for him for one night (not a whole tour) but he was incredibly gracious and generous toward me and I’ve certainly never forgotten it Picture Quote #1

When you’re dressed up as David Bowie, with your eyebrows completely bleached, and you’re doing this kind of strange dance with Paul McCartney while singing Rebel Rebel in the middle of the Met ball, and Madonna’s looking at you . . . I was just thinking, It’s become a bit weird Picture Quote #1

I’m very curious about David Bowie’s new record [2016]. I’m very, very... I’m just incredibly curious, I want to see what’s happening with that. I don’t really know who else is putting out records, we’ve had our heads buried working on ours. I haven’t really been paying much attention lately Picture Quote #1

When I was growing up in the early 70s and really getting into music, waiting outside the record store for that 45, waiting for a single from The Dead, The Clash, David Bowie, or T-Rex or something to be there. There was something about that that was so special Picture Quote #1

After people like Lennon and Dylan, I think David Bowie brought a very modernistic intelligence and the necessity for change. I think he was completely positive, certainly through one and a half decades of completely overriding influence, in the best of popular music, and I take my bloody hat off to him! Picture Quote #1

David Bowie emerged as a rock star in the late 60s. And as Ken Tucker wrote, In the face of the hippy era’s sincerity, intimacy and generosity, Bowie presented irony, distance and self-absorption. His song ‘Changes’ announced the arrival of a new counterculture, unquote Picture Quote #1

If I say something about David [Bowie], I get 1000 tweets, if I say something about my business just a few! The more personal, the better Picture Quote #1
