Can you please crawl out your window? Use your arms and your legs, it won't ruin you
Bob Dylan
Image
You get older. You start having hopes for other people rather than yourself.
Bob Dylan
Image
Never make it perfect.
Bob Dylan
Image
I just don't hear anyone else making the music I'm making in my head, so I'll have to do it myself.
Bob Dylan
Image
I wouldn't even think of playing music if I was born in these times. I wouldn't even listen to the radio.
Bob Dylan

Look, you know i don't wanna come on ungrateful, but that warren report, you know as well as me, just didn't make it. You know, like they might as well have asked some banana salesman from des moines, who was up in toronto on the big day, if he saw anyone around looking suspicious/.

It's always disappointing when people decide for one reason or another that they don't like your work anymore, but you can't try to please people, because then you're just going to be doing - you'll never live it down, y'know it'll always be dogging you around - you might be being a fake about the whole thing.
Bob Dylan

I like the fans, but I don't feel an obligation that I have to be an example to them, like say maybe a baseball player would, or a football player or maybe some other type of musicians. I don't feel I have to really set an example that somebody else has to live up to.

The walls of pride are high and wide, can't see over to the other side.
Bob Dylan

Everybody has their own idea of what's a poet. Robert Frost, President Johnson, T.S.Eliot, Rudolf Valentino - they're all poets. I like to think of myself as the one who carries the light bulb.
Bob Dylan

Mama's in the factory, she ain't got no shoes. Daddy's in the alley, he's looking for food.
Bob Dylan

I didn't know whether to duck or to run, so I ran.
Bob Dylan

I need all kinds of songs - fast ones, slow ones, minor key, ballads, rumbas - and they all get juggled around during a live show. I've been trying for years to come up with songs that have the feeling of a Shakespearean drama, so I'm always starting with that.

Rumble is the best instrumental ever.

A brilliant 1989 album, Oh Mercy some career retrospectives and two albums of American folk songs, with just Bob Dylan and his guitar and harmonica. All that culminated in the Grammy-winning comeback album, Time Out of Mind (1997). Once again, just as Dylan seemed to be out of it, he was back at the top of his game.

Bob Dylan wasn't a big star early on it was the release of his Greatest Hits album in 1967, and the mainstream success of the stoner anthem Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 (Everybody must get stoned!), that really put him on the mainstream map.

I gaze into the doorway of temptation's angry flame And every time I pass that way I always hear my name

The radio makes hideous sounds.
Bob Dylan

That's another way of writing a song, of course. Just talking to somebody that ain't there. That's the best way. That's the truest way. Then it just becomes a question of how heroic your speech is. To me, it's something to strive after.

Every step of the way we walk the line Your days are numbered, so are mine Time is pilin' up, we struggle and we scrape We're all boxed in, nowhere to escape
