More quotes by Bob Dylan
It was [meeting with Nicolas Sarkozy] like looking at my mirror image.
Bob Dylan
I felt like I might as well have been living in another part of the solar system.
Bob Dylan
At times in my life the only place I have been happy is when I am on stage.
Bob Dylan
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings. And I've never been too impressed.
Bob Dylan
Time is an ocean, but it ends at the shore.
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
I come from way north. We'd listen to radio shows all the time. I think I was the last generation, or pretty close to the last one, that grew up without TV.
Bob Dylan
For the loser now Will be later to win
Bob Dylan
A lot of people don't like the road, but it's as natural to me as breathing.
Bob Dylan
Well now what's the use in dreamin' You got better things to do Dreams never did work for me anyway Even when they did come true
Bob Dylan
If you need somebody you can trust, trust yourself
Bob Dylan
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children.
Bob Dylan
Ain't no use jiving, ain't no use joking, everything is broken.
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 wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes. You'd know what a drag it is to see you.
Bob Dylan
I am a restless soul hungry perhaps wretched.
Bob Dylan
I wanted to understand things and then be free of them. I needed to learn how to telescope things, ideas. Things were too big to see all at once, like all the books in the library-everything laying around on all the tables. You might be able to put it all into one paragraph or into one verse of a song if you could get it right.
Bob Dylan
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing.
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
How many years can some people exist before they're allowed to be free.
Bob Dylan
