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

In songs, you have to tell people about something they didn't see and weren't there for, and you have to do it as if you were.
Bob Dylan
Death to me means nothing as long as I can die fast.
Bob Dylan
Sometimes it's not enough to know what things mean, sometimes you have to know what things don't mean.
Bob Dylan
Some times I think this whole world Is one big prison yeard Some of us are prisoners The rest of us are guards
Bob Dylan
You're better than no one and no one is better than you.
Bob Dylan
The times they are a-changing.
Bob Dylan
Well the book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy, the law of the jungle and the sea are your only teachers.
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
Love is all there is, it makes the world go 'round Love and only love, it can't be denied No matter what you think about it You just won't be able to do without it Take a tip from one who's tried
Bob Dylan
The enemy is subtle, how be it we are so deceived, when truth's in our hearts and we still don't believe.
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
Inspiration is hard to come by. You have to take it where you find it.
Bob Dylan
Get jailed, jump bail, join the Army if you fail.
Bob Dylan
But now we got weapons Of the chemical dust If fire them we're forced to Then fire them we must One push of the button And a shot the world wide And you never ask questions When God's on your side
Bob Dylan
The executioner's face is always well hidden.
Bob Dylan
I'm in love with my second cousin.
Bob Dylan
Passion is a young man's game. Young people can be passionate. Older people gotta be more wise. I mean, you're around awhile, you leave certain things to the young. Don't try to act like you're young. You could really hurt yourself.
Bob Dylan
Well, I try my best to be just like I am, But everybody wants you to be just like them, They sing while you slave and I just get bored
Bob Dylan
I'm sittin' on my watch so I can be on time.
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
