More quotes by Bob Dylan
Whatever that [transfiguration by Bob Dylan] means, it's true that the poetic brilliance of the early career would never really reappear.
Bob Dylan
Oh, God said to Abraham, Kill me a son Abe said, Man, you must be puttin' me on God said, No Abe say, What? God say, You can do what you want, Abe, but The next time you see me comin', you better run Well, Abe said, Where d'you want this killin' done? God said, Out on Highway 61.
Bob Dylan
your problem is that wanna better word for world
Bob Dylan
I dug it, New York City, all-the streets and the snows and the starving and the five-flight walkups and sleeping in rooms with ten people. I dug the trains and the shadows, the way I dug ore mines and coal mines. I just jumped right to the bottom of New York.
Bob Dylan
The times they are a-changing.
Bob Dylan
We're constantly being bombarded by insulting and humiliating music, which people are making for you the way they make those Wonder Bread products. Just as food can be bad for your system, music can be bad for your spiritual and emotional feelings. It might taste good or clever, but in the long run, it's not going to do anything for you.
Bob Dylan
I've never been able to understand the seriousness of it all, the seriousness of pride. People talk, act, live as if they're never going to die. And what do they leave behind? Nothing. Nothing but a mask.
Bob Dylan
She took off her wheel, took off her bell, took off her wig, said, how do I smell? I hot footed it barenaked out the window.
Bob Dylan
Some times I think this whole world Is one big prison yeard Some of us are prisoners The rest of us are guards
Bob Dylan
Ain't no use jiving, ain't no use joking, everything is broken.
Bob Dylan
Gotta head full of ideas that are driving me insane.
Bob Dylan
I’m in awe of McCartney. He’s about the only one that I am in awe of. He can do it all. And he’s never let up... He’s just so damn effortless.
Bob Dylan
When the jelly faced women all sneeze, hear the one with the mustache say I can't find my knees.
Bob Dylan
Feeling funny in my mind, Lord I believe I'm fixing to die Well, I don't mind dying But I hate to leave my children crying Well, I look over yonder to that burying ground Look over yonder to that burying ground Sure seems lonesome, Lord, when the sun goes down
Bob Dylan
Let the dead bury the dead, your time will come.
Bob Dylan
Some of the old folk singers used to phrase things in an interesting way, and then, I got my style from seeing a lot of outdoor-type poets, who would recite their poetry. When you don't have a guitar, you recite things differently, and there used to be quite a few poets in the jazz clubs, who would recite with a different type of attitude.
Bob Dylan
I'm looking for a woman who's head is mixed up like mine.
Bob Dylan
I have always believed that fame is a curse. I never envied one of the famous people I've known.
Bob Dylan
Cop comes down the street crazy as a loon, he throws us in jail for carrying harpoons.
Bob Dylan
Art is the perpetual motion of illusion. The highest purpose of art is to inspire. What else can you do? What else can you do for any one but inspire them?
Bob Dylan
