Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan
I'm sittin' on my watch so I can be on time.
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

Bob Dylan
Either I'm too sensitive, or else I'm gettin' soft
Bob Dylan
Once I went into songwriting, I figured I had to - I couldn't be a hellfire rock 'n' roller. But I could write hellfire lyrics.
Bob Dylan
You been down to the bottom with a bad man, babe But you're back were you belong
Bob Dylan
Lay down the song you strum, And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum.
Bob Dylan
Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected expected?
Bob Dylan
I made a bargain with him, the chief in a world we can't see. (devil)
Bob Dylan
We're living in times where men commit crimes and crime don't have a face.
Bob Dylan
Keep a good head and always carry a light bulb.
Bob Dylan
