David Bowie Quotes
Musician
David Bowie was musician from Great Britain
“I didn't know where I was going, but I promised myself it wouldn't be boring.”— David Bowie
Bowie said this in various forms throughout his career. Behind every transformation was the fear of madness and at the same time a curiosity about the limits of human identity. His brother Terry killed himself in 1985. Bowie did not attend the funeral. He carried that weight in silence and turned pain into art.
