You can be mean
And I,

And that is that

Put your ray gun to my head

“Heathenism is a state of mind. You can take it that I’m referring to one who does not see his world. He has no mental light. He destroys almost unwittingly. He cannot feel any Gods presence in his life. He is the 21st century man.”
― David Bowie

“My brother was one of the bigger influences in my life, in as much as he told me I didn't have to read the choice of books that I as recommended at school, and that I could go out to the library and go and choose my own, and sort of introduced me to authors that I wouldn't have read.probably. You know, the usual things like the Jack Kerouacs, the Ginsbergs, the ee Cummings and stuff.”
― David Bowie

“It’s almost as if Bronson, Ginsberg and Bowie craved the freedom of letting go, of pushing their mind aside and allowing the vampires and demons and all the other freaks to run them so that they could slip away elsewhere”
― Karl Wiggins, Wrong Planet - Searching for your Tribe

“He Said. "David, you must remember that in all the functions we have in life, art is the one place where we can crash our plane and walk away from it". And that's so right. Creating something is the one area where you mustn't have caution or inhibition. If you make a startling, disastrous mess, it's fine, because you can reach out and reevaluate and plunge off into another direction.

― Sean Egan, Bowie on Bowie: Interviews and Encounters with David Bowie (8)

“Morality was supreme because it joined male and female characteristics. Blending the best characteristics of both sexes and the 'opposite' races - the characteristics of intelligence and compassion - Comte claimed the legitimacy to act as the spokesperson for the collective being Humanity and to regenerate society. As a completely unified and moral person, he could create within society the solidarity necessary for progress. In a way, he was challenging the two androgynes who had captured the imagination of his contemporaries: Joan of Arc and George Sand. Comte appeared to heed the words of a feminist journal. La Voix des Femmes, which proclaimed in 1848 that 'Woman must ... emancipate man by making him a woman.”
― Mary Pickering, Auguste Comte: An Intellectual Biography, Volume III

“Et pourtant je suis un homme. C'est ça que je voulais te dire : avant d'être un homme ou une femme, homo ou hétéro, on est une personne. Fort ou faible, dominant ou dominé, ça a souvent à voir avec ce qu'on a entre les jambes, mais pas que. C'est pour ça que j'aime Bowie, regarde, il bouscule tous les codes : masculin et féminin, il couche avec des hommes, avec des femmes, il révolutionne la musique, se réinvente chaque fois. Et en même temps il ne revendique rien, ne veut pas être un porte-drapeau, ne marche pas pour une cause. C'est pas un modèle. Il nous ouvre juste des horizons.”
― Jessie Magana, Nos elles déployées

“I can't think of a single question to which I'd receive a satisfactory answer or, indeed, one I'd want to hear.

I mean, where do you start, when faced with someone responsible for your alternative education, for opening up the world to you? It would be like Blake talking back to the angels on Peckham Rye.

Philip Hoare - Bowie Is”
― Victoria Broakes and Geoffrey Marsh, David Bowie Is Inside

“A tawdry realm of shifting, insecure employment and fleeting glimpses of high reward for little effort. A world where strings are pulled by complete cretins while those who work hard at the creative coalface are at the bottom of a steaming dunghill of vacuity, broken dreams, and empty promises.”
― Kevin Armstrong, Absolute Beginner: Memoirs of the world's best least-known guitarist
