More quotes by Bob Dylan
If you want to keep your memories, you first have to live them.
Bob Dylan
Nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street.
Bob Dylan
Don't matter how much money you got, there's only two kinds of people: there's saved people and there's lost people.
Bob Dylan
Bob has never written a bad song. Bob Dylan is a genius.
Bob Dylan
I find C major to be the key of strength, but also the key of regret. E major is the key of confidence. A-flat major is the key of renunciation.
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
I have always believed that fame is a curse. I never envied one of the famous people I've known.
Bob Dylan
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken, I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children, And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.
Bob Dylan
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children.
Bob Dylan
There must be some kind of way out of here,' said the joker to the thief.
Bob Dylan
And it dawned on me that I might have to change my inner thought patterns... that I would have to start believing in possibilities that I wouldn't have allowed before, that I had been closing my creativity down to a very narrow, controllable scale... that things had become too familiar and I might have to disorientate myself. p.71
Bob Dylan
I never wanted to be a prophet or a saviour. Elvis maybe
Bob Dylan
I think I have a dualistic nature.
Bob Dylan
I started writing songs after I heard Hank Williams.
Bob Dylan
Having these colossal accolades and titles, they get in the way.
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
You’re a cow Give me some milk Or else go home
Bob Dylan
Get jailed, jump bail, join the Army if you fail.
Bob Dylan
You use to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat, who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat.
Bob Dylan
My songs are personal music, they're not communal. I wouldn't want people singing along with me. It would sound funny. I'm not playing campfire meetings. I don't remember anyone singing along with Elvis, Carl Perkins or Little Richard.
Bob Dylan
