Time takes a cigarette… - David Bowie

It’s a compulsive need to wreck everything. You might notice there’s a pattern of stripping down and building back up again throughout my life. I guess that’s how some of us conduct our lives.

I'm the cream
Of the great utopia dream.
And you're in the gleam
In the depths of your banker's spleen.

BOWIE: I change my mind a lot. I usually don’t agree with what I say very much. I’m an awful liar. (...)
I’m not sure whether it is me changing my mind, or whether I lie a lot. It’s somewhere between the two. I don’t exactly lie, I change my mind all the time. People are always throwing things at me that I’ve said and I say that I didn’t mean anything. You can’t stand still on one point for your entire life.
