People have their fingers broken.
To be insulted by these fascists
Is so degrading and it's no game.

More quotes by David Bowie

I think fame itself is not a rewarding thing. The most you can say is that it gets you a seat in restaurants.

As long as you're still smiling there's nothing more I need.

All I have is my love of love and love is not loving.

I always had a repulsive sort of need to be something more than human. I felt very very puny as a human. I thought, "Fuck that. I want to be a superman."

Those who feel me near
Pull the blinds and change their minds.
