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
It wouldn't kill you to stay the night anyway.
Bob Dylan
I started writing songs after I heard Hank Williams.
Bob Dylan
He did ten years in Attica, reading Nietzsche and Wilhelm Reich.
Bob Dylan
I've never been able to understand the seriousness of it all, the seriousness of pride. People talk, act, live as if they're never going to die. And what do they leave behind? Nothing. Nothing but a mask.
Bob Dylan
I never wanted to be a prophet or a saviour. Elvis maybe
Bob Dylan
Watch waterfalls of pity roar, you feel to moan but unlike before, you discover that you'd just be one more person crying.
Bob Dylan
In another lifetime she must have owned the world, or been faithfully wed to some righteous king who wrote psalms beside moonlit streams.
Bob Dylan
I don't usually purge myself by writing anything about any type of quote, so-called, relationships.
Bob Dylan
Up north, you could find these radio stations with no name on the dials that played pre-rock 'n' roll things - country blues. We would hear Slim Harpo or Lightnin' Slim and gospel groups, the Dixie Hummingbirds, the Five Blind Boys of Alabama. I was so far north, I didn't even know where Alabama was.
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
The executioner's face is always well hidden.
Bob Dylan
Can you please crawl out your window? Use your arms and your legs, it won't ruin you
Bob Dylan
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'.
Bob Dylan
We all like motorcycles to some degree.
Bob Dylan
God bless you all with peace, tranquility and good will.
Bob Dylan
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
Bob Dylan
On the stone that remains carved next to his name, his epitaph plain, only a pawn in their game.
Bob Dylan
Old New York City is a friendly old town From Washington Heights to Harlem on down There's a-mighty many people all millin' all around They'll kick you when you're up and knock you when you're down It's hard times in the city Livin' down in New York town
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
..When I first heard Elvis' voice, I knew that I wasn't going to work for anybody ... hearing him for the first time was like busting out of jail
