More quotes by Bob Dylan
I don't know if I call myself a poet or not. I would like to, but I'm not really qualified to make that decision, because I come in on such a back door, that I don't know what a Robert Frost or a [John] Keats or a T.S. Eliot would really think of my stuff.
Bob Dylan
Can you please crawl out your window? Use your arms and your legs, it won't ruin you
Bob Dylan
Sundown, yellow moon, I replay the past I know every scene by heart, they all went by so fast
Bob Dylan
[Bob] Dylan crashed his motorcycle in 1967, and almost died. A few years ago, he referred to the experience as a transfiguration.
Bob Dylan
All that foreign oil controlling American soil.
Bob Dylan
There is a house in New Orleans they call the Rising Sun, and it's been the ruin of many a poor boy and God I know I'm one.
Bob Dylan
When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud, I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form.
Bob Dylan
It ain't my cup of meat.
Bob Dylan
I can't see my reflection in the waters, I can't speak the sounds that show no pain. I can't hear the echo of my footsteps, or can't remember the sound of my own name.
Bob Dylan
I accept chaos. I am not sure whether it accepts me. I know some people are terrified of the bomb. But then some people are terrified to be seen carrying a modern screen magazine. Experience teaches us that silence terrifies people the most.
Bob Dylan
Shedding off one more layer of skin, Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within.
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
Mama, put my guns in the ground, I can't shoot them anymore. That long black cloud is coming down.
Bob Dylan
Advertising signs: they con you into thinking you're the one That can do what's never been done That can win what's never been won Meantime life outside goes on all around you
Bob Dylan
No one is free, even the birds are chained to the sky.
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.
Bob Dylan
You know, sometimes a person's reputation can be far more colossal than the influence of the person. I don't pay any attention to it anymore.
Bob Dylan
If you need somebody you can trust, trust yourself
Bob Dylan
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.
Bob Dylan
Good intentions can be evil, both hands are full of grease. You know, sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
Bob Dylan
