David Bowie

"I suppose everything you do in life is framed by your desire to be loved and the desire for power."

"The whole time I've got this tremendous enthusiasm."

"I'm a creature of the future."

"It's quite clear that we are heading for times when we'll see more and more this age of cancelled books."

"I'm learning to be grateful for the simple things."

"I'm interested in anything about revolt and revolution."

"Life is what you make it."

"The work is what matters."

"I never wrote anything that didn't come from experience."

"I think that if the world stopped obsessing about how it could be and just started making use of how it actually is, it would be a much better place."

"I believe that if you've got something to say about something, you should say it."

"Sometimes it takes years to really understand another person."

"I'm always in love."

"The most important thing is that you keep working and creating."

"I've never been one to follow the script."

"People are always eager to put you in a box."

"I think discipline is just what you do."

"I'm an artist first and foremost."

"The moment you knock on a door it becomes a different door."

"I used to have a drug problem, now I have a philosophy."

"I'm trying to throw away my masks."

"I'm just the vehicle."

"Tomorrow belongs to those who can hear it coming."

"I think I have always been scared in my life."

"The key to a great existence is to have something to do."

"I just made it up as I went along."

"The world is waiting for your voice."

"I've never not been ambitious."

"I don't know where I'm going from here, but I promise it won't be boring."

"I think friendships are the most important thing."
