More quotes by Bob Dylan
There were only a few seats left in coach and Bob found himself seated next to a young female fan. 'I can't believe I'm sitting next to Bob Dylan!' she screamed.'Pinch yourself,' said Bob.
Bob Dylan
The Duke [John Wayne] was a massive figure. He looked like a heavy piece of hauled lumber, and it didn't seem like any man could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
Bob Dylan
Seven shots ring out like the ocean's pounding roar, there's seven people dead on a South Dakota farm.
Bob Dylan
There are degrees of happiness. You go from one to the other and then back again. It's hard to be completely happy when those around us are suffering and groaning from hunger.
Bob Dylan
The song was there before me, before I came along. I just sorta came down and just sorta took it down with a pencil, but it was there before I came around.
Bob Dylan
But now we got weapons Of the chemical dust If fire them we're forced to Then fire them we must One push of the button And a shot the world wide And you never ask questions When God's on your side
Bob Dylan
How many years can some people exist before they're allowed to be free.
Bob Dylan
You always got to be prepared but you never know for what.
Bob Dylan
Look out your window, and I'll be gone. You're the reason I'm a-traveling on.
Bob Dylan
Yesterday is just a memory.
Bob Dylan
Once I can focus in on something, I just play it in my mind until an idea comes from out of nowhere, and it's usually the key to the whole song. It's the idea that matters. It's like electricity was around long before Edison harnessed it.
Bob Dylan
Everybody knows by now that there's a gazillion books on me either out or coming out in the near future. So I'm encouraging anybody who's ever met me, heard me or even seen me, to get in on the action and scribble their own book. You never know, somebody might have a great book in them.
Bob Dylan
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children.
Bob Dylan
Never make it perfect.
Bob Dylan
I can't see my reflection in the waters, I can't speak the sounds that show no pain. I can't hear the echo of my footsteps, or can't remember the sound of my own name.
Bob Dylan
If you choose to live outside the law, you must obey the law more stringently than anyone.
Bob Dylan
I became interested in folk music because I had to make it somehow.
Bob Dylan
Bent out of shape from society's pliers, cares not to come up any higher, but rather get you down in the hole that he's in.
Bob Dylan
I've always been the kind of person that doesn't like to trespass, but sometimes you just find yourself over the line.
Bob Dylan
I accept chaos. I am not sure whether it accepts me. I know some people are terrified of the bomb. But then some people are terrified to be seen carrying a modern screen magazine. Experience teaches us that silence terrifies people the most.
Bob Dylan
