That's another way of writing a song, of course. Just talking to somebody that ain't there. That's the best way. That's the truest way. Then it just becomes a question of how heroic your speech is. To me, it's something to strive after.
Bob Dylan

More quotes by Bob Dylan
Fortune or fame, you must pick one or the other, though neither of them are to be what they claim.
Bob Dylan
Stay free of petty jealousies, live by no man's code, and hold your judgment for yourself, lest you wind up on this road.
Bob Dylan
All right, I'll take a chance. I will fall in love with you. If i'm a fool you can have the night, you can have the morning too. Can you cook and sew. make flowers grow. Do you understand my pain? Are you willing to risk it all or is your love in vain?
Bob Dylan
Bullets can harm you and death can disarm you, but no, you will not be deceived. Stripped of all virtue as you crawl through the dirt, you can give but you cannot receive.
Bob Dylan
When I think of mystery, I don't think about myself. I think of the universe, like why does the moon rise when the sun falls? Caterpillars turn into butterflies? I really haven't remained a recluse.
Bob Dylan
Some are masters of illusions, some are ministers of trade, all under the same delusion, all their beds unmade.
Bob Dylan
You better start swimming, or you'll sink like a stone. Because the Time's they are a-changing.
Bob Dylan
You use to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat, who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat.
Bob Dylan
If I had wings, no one would ask me: should I fly?
Bob Dylan
The Duke [John Wayne] was a massive figure. He looked like a heavy piece of hauled lumber, and it didn't seem like any man could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
Bob Dylan
The confessional singer-songwriter movement of the 1970s was in full swing, and Bob Dylan's emotional album [ Blood on the Tracks] resonated with the times. There would be other hits, but never the same alchemy of emotion and time.
Bob Dylan
Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb/I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from/Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer/It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
Bob Dylan
Morality has nothing in common with politics.
Bob Dylan
Every writer at the New Yorker is smarter than me.
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
Beyond here lies nothin' But the mountains of the past
Bob Dylan
Well, I don't know, but I've been told the streets in heaven are lined with gold. I ask you how things could get much worse if the Russians happen to get up there first Wowee! pretty scary!
Bob Dylan
May you stay Forever Young
Bob Dylan
Your heart is like the ocean, mysterious and dark.
Bob Dylan
She never stumbles, she's got no place to fall. She's nobody's child, the law can't touch her at all.
Bob Dylan
