Quote

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)

They kill people here who stand up for their rights The system's just too damned corrupt It's always the same, the name of the game Is who do you know higher up

Just because you like my stuff doesn't mean I owe you anything.

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

DESTINY is a feeling you have that you know something about yourself nobody else does. The picture you have in your own mind of what you're about WILL COME TRUE. It's a kind of a thing you kind of have to keep to your own self, because it's a fragile feeling, and you put it out there, then someone will kill it. It's best to keep that all inside.

Socialism, hypnotism, patriotism, materialism, fools making laws for the breaking of jaws.
Bob Dylan

We shouldn't confuse singers and performers with actors. Actors will say, My character this, and my character that. Like beating a dead horse. Who cares about the character? Just get up and act. You don't have to explain it to me.
Bob Dylan

Your eyes are like two jewels in the sky.

To live outside the law, you must be honest.

Come writers and critics Who prophesize with your pen And keep your eyes wide The chance won't come again And don't speak too soon For the wheel's still in spin And there's no tellin' who That it's namin' For the loser now Will be later to win For the times they are a-changin'.

Music can save people, but it can't in the commercial way it's being used. It's just too much. It's pollution.

Bob Dylan was again an entirely new person - this time old, craggy, cynical, and world-weary, as in Not Dark Yet.

Can you please crawl out your window? Use your arms and your legs, it won't ruin you

A record ... is a statement, it's its own statement, its own entity, rather than being about something else. If I was a painter ... I don't paint the chair, I would paint feelings about the chair.
