I'm well past the age where I'm acceptable. You get to a certain age and you are forbidden access. You're not going to get the kind of coverage that you would like in music magazines, you're not going to get played on radio and you're not going to get played on television. I have to survive on word of mouth. David Bowie on music

I'm just an individual who doesn't feel that I need to have somebody qualify my work in any particular way. I'm working for me. David Bowie on work
But I'm pretty good with collaborative thinking. I work well with other people. David Bowie on work
I suppose for me as an artist it wasn't always just about expressing my work I really wanted, more than anything else, to contribute in some way to the culture that I was living in. It just seemed like a challenge to move it a little bit towards the way I thought it might be interesting to go. David Bowie on work
