More quotes by Bob Dylan
Everyone of them words rang true and glowed like burning coal, pouring off every page like it was written in my soul from me to you.
Bob Dylan
Advertising signs: they con you into thinking you're the one That can do what's never been done That can win what's never been won Meantime life outside goes on all around you
Bob Dylan
Every writer at the New Yorker is smarter than me.
Bob Dylan
People call you this or that. But I can't respond because then it seems like I'm defensive, you know, what does it matter, really?
Bob Dylan
I think I have a dualistic nature.
Bob Dylan
Well now what's the use in dreamin' You got better things to do Dreams never did work for me anyway Even when they did come true
Bob Dylan
The walls of pride are high and wide, can't see over to the other side.
Bob Dylan
Loneliness Got a mind of its own The more people around The more you feel alone
Bob Dylan
With your silhouette when the sunlight dims Into your eyes where the moonlight swims, And your match-book songs and your gypsy hymns, Who among them would try to impress you? -Bob Dylan, Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands” (1966)
Bob Dylan
Popular music had never had lyrical sophistication of this type [like Bob Dylan] wit, to be sure, but Darkness at the break of noon/Shadows even the silver spoon/The handmade blade, the child's balloon/Eclipses both the sun and moon/To understand you know too soon/ There is no sense in trying? No.
Bob Dylan
May your heart always be joyful. May your song always be sung.
Bob Dylan
When you asked me how I was doing, was that some kind of joke
Bob Dylan
I don't know if I call myself a poet or not. I would like to, but I'm not really qualified to make that decision, because I come in on such a back door, that I don't know what a Robert Frost or a [John] Keats or a T.S. Eliot would really think of my stuff.
Bob Dylan
Well the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount, But nothing really matters much it's doom alone that counts.
Bob Dylan
People do whatever they want to do, y'know.
Bob Dylan
The truth is far from you, so you know you got to lie. Then you're all the time defending what you can never justify.
Bob Dylan
It may look like I'm moving but I'm standing still.
Bob Dylan
Some people seem to fade away but then when they are truly gone, it's like they didn't fade away at all.
Bob Dylan
Maybe in the 90s or possibly in the next century people will look upon the 80s as the age of masturbation, when it was taken to the limit that might be all that's going on right now in a big way.
Bob Dylan
Well, I don't know, but I've been told the streets in heaven are lined with gold. I ask you how things could get much worse if the Russians happen to get up there first Wowee! pretty scary!
Bob Dylan
