More quotes by Bob Dylan
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
Bob Dylan
I don't call myself a poet, because I don't like the word.
Bob Dylan
You use to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat, who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat.
Bob Dylan
Really the truth is just a plain picture. A plain picture of, let's say, a tramp vomiting in the sewere. You know, and next door to the picture Mr. Rockefeller or Mr. C. W. Jones on the subway going to work. You know, any kind of picture. Just make a collage of pictures.
Bob Dylan
Look, you know i don't wanna come on ungrateful, but that warren report, you know as well as me, just didn't make it. You know, like they might as well have asked some banana salesman from des moines, who was up in toronto on the big day, if he saw anyone around looking suspicious/.
Bob Dylan
People think they know me from my songs. But my repertoire of songs is so wide-ranging that you'd have to be a madman to figure out the characteristics of the person who wrote all those songs.
Bob Dylan
Sailin' 'round the world in a dirty gondola Oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola!
Bob Dylan
I didn't know whether to duck or to run, so I ran.
Bob Dylan
Lay down the song you strum, And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum.
Bob Dylan
Life is more or less a lie, but then again, that's exactly the way we want it to be.
Bob Dylan
I like the fans, but I don't feel an obligation that I have to be an example to them, like say maybe a baseball player would, or a football player or maybe some other type of musicians. I don't feel I have to really set an example that somebody else has to live up to.
Bob Dylan
Praise be to Nero's Neptune The Titanic sails at dawn And everybody's shouting Which Side Are You On? And Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot Fighting in the captain's tower While calypso singers laugh at them And fishermen hold flowers.
Bob Dylan
Just because you like my stuff doesn't mean I owe you anything.
Bob Dylan
Every writer at the New Yorker is smarter than me.
Bob Dylan
Most songs have bridges in them, to distract listeners from the main verses of a song so they don't get bored. My songs don't have a lot of bridges because lyric poetry never had them.
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
You been down to the bottom with a bad man, babe But you're back were you belong
Bob Dylan
There must be some kind of way out of here,' said the joker to the thief.
Bob Dylan
If you can't lend a hand, then get out of the way.
Bob Dylan
There's not even room enough to be anywhere/It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.../I was born here and I'll die here against my will/I know it looks like I'm moving, but I'm standing still.
Bob Dylan
