My songs always sound a lot better in person than they do on the record.
Bob Dylan
Image
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
Image
Well, I try my best to be just like I am, But everybody wants you to be just like them, They sing while you slave and I just get bored
Bob Dylan
Image
She knows there's no success like failure, and that failure's no success at all.
Bob Dylan

I need all kinds of songs - fast ones, slow ones, minor key, ballads, rumbas - and they all get juggled around during a live show. I've been trying for years to come up with songs that have the feeling of a Shakespearean drama, so I'm always starting with that.
Bob Dylan

I don't think the human mind can comprehend the past and the future. They are both just illusions that can manipulate you into thinking there's some kind of change.
Bob Dylan
Image
A song is like a dream, and you try to make it come true. They're like strange countries that you have to enter.
Bob Dylan
Image
If you try to be anyone but yourself, you will fail if you are not true to your own heart, you will fail. Then again, there's no success like failure
Bob Dylan
Image
Who am I helping, what am I breaking, what am I giving, what am I taking?
Bob Dylan
Image
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
Image
Art is a never-ending dance of illusions.
Bob Dylan
Image
There's danger in this open world where men strive to be free, and to me the greatest danger was in society.
Bob Dylan
Image
I make my stand and remain as I am, and bid farewell and not give a damn.
Bob Dylan
Image
Cop comes down the street crazy as a loon, he throws us in jail for carrying harpoons.
Bob Dylan
Image
On the stone that remains carved next to his name, his epitaph plain, only a pawn in their game.
Bob Dylan
