Bowie: January 8, 1947 – January 10, 2016

Posted on January 11, 2016 By Sammy Younan No Comments on Bowie: January 8, 1947 – January 10, 2016

Far too early and way too raw to begin articulating Bowie’s infectious value and courageous contributions. I dunno that anybody can: his life and his work defy orderly summary. He was and is a large stone thrown into planet Earth and the size of the ripple effect is staggering: I’ve always had affection for the weirdos.

The quote above is taken from The Business of David Bowie: easily one of my all-time favourite Bowie quotes.
