With your silhouette when the sunlight dims Into your eyes where the moonlight swims, And your match-book songs and your gypsy hymns, Who among them would try to impress you? -Bob Dylan, Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands” (1966)

More quotes by 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
You walk into the room like a camel and then put your eyes in your pockets and your nose on the ground.
Bob Dylan
The hollow horn plays wasted words, proves to warn that he not busy being born is busy dying.
Bob Dylan
The world of research has gone berserk. Too much paper work.
Bob Dylan
When you asked me how I was doing, was that some kind of joke
Bob Dylan
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Bob Dylan
If you like someone's work, the important thing is to be exposed to everything that person has been exposed to. Anyone who wants to be a songwriter should listen to as much folk music as they can, study the form and structure of stuff that has been around for 100 years.
Bob Dylan
Shedding off one more layer of skin, Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within.
Bob Dylan
I am a restless soul hungry perhaps wretched.
Bob Dylan
All the money you made will never buy back your soul.
Bob Dylan
If you need somebody you can trust, trust yourself
Bob Dylan
I never could guess your weight, baby.
Bob Dylan
My songs were influenced not so much by poetry on the page but by poetry being recited by the poets who recited poems with jazz bands.
Bob Dylan
If I had wings, no one would ask me: should I fly?
Bob Dylan
People disagreeing everywhere you look makes you wanna stop and read a book.
Bob Dylan
Loneliness, tenderness, high society, notoriety, you fight for the throne and you travel alone.
Bob Dylan
Either I'm too sensitive, or else I'm gettin' soft
Bob Dylan
May your heart always be joyful. May your song always be sung.
Bob Dylan
In harmony with cosmic sea, true love needs no company. It can cure the soul, it can make it whole, if dogs run free.
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.
