David Bowie Home Quotations

Since the departure of good old-fashioned entertainers the re-emergence of somebody who wants to be an entertainer has unfortunately become a synonym for camp. I don't think I'm camper than any other person who felt at home on stage, and felt more at home on stage than he did offstage.

I don't crave applause. I'm not one of those guys who comes alive on stage. I'm much more alive at home, I think.

My father worked for a children's home called Dr. Barnardo's Homes. They're a charity.

My mother was Catholic, my father was Protestant. There was always a debate going on at home - I think in those days we called them arguments - about who was right and who was wrong.

Songs don't have to be about going out on Saturday night and having a good rink-up and driving home and crashing cars. A lot of what I've done is about alienation... about where you fit in society.

It makes me sad when I see artists who come alive when they go onstage, because, gee, I really come alive when I'm home.

I don't believe in proper cinema; it doesn't have the strength of television. People having to go out to the cinema is really archaic. I'd much rather sit at home.
