”The best way to get to know a city is to count up how much change you have in your pocket and take the subway as far as that amount gets you.” David Bowie on traveling in Japan
(Source: gouldbookbinder, via freecocaine)
“At the height of his cocaine addiction, David Bowie weighed only 95 pounds, hardly a healthy weight for 5’11”. He later said that he spent most of the mid-Seventies trying to perfect telekinesis and trying to keep Jimmy Page and witches from stealing his soul.”

David Bowie & Catherine Deneuve in The Hunger
David & Catherine
- David Bowie: ooo Suffragette Citay!
- David Bowie: ooo Suffragette Citay!
- David Bowie: Ooohoo Suffragette Citay!
- David Bowie: oooohoo Sufragette Citay!
- Song: dum dum dum dum dum!
- Me: EVERY ONE SHUT UP
- The entire universe seems to go still, every living thing on earth freezes, a tumble weed rolls by and crickets chirp and it seems as if time has slowed down.
- David Bowie: ooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOH WHAM BAM THANK YOU MA'AM!
- Me: Okay, carry on.

#truth #david bowie #storytime: #one summer I went to Tanzania. Most of the time I was in Karatu-but I got to spend a day in Arusha. #When I was there my friend and I went to get lunch but couldn't find any mid-range places. So we went to this super expensive Italian place. #while we were having lunch an incredibly thin/attractive/alien-like dude sat down at a table near ours #in short- he looked SO MUCH like bowie. #he was alone drinking coffee and talking on the phone. He had Bowie's accent but we couldn't really hear the words he was saying #I mean...there was no reason for bowie to be in Africa- but with a dude as weird as him you never really know for sure #so we spent the whole meal staring at him and trying to figure out if it would be impolite to stand up and shout 'WHAM BAM THANK YOU MA'AM!' #he left before we could...maybe because we were creepin' on him so hard. one of the great unsolved mysteries of my life....
