More quotes by 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
Bob Dylan
I don't think I'm tangible to myself.
Bob Dylan
I think of rock 'n' roll as a combination of country blues and swing band music, not Chicago blues, and modern pop.
Bob Dylan
How many times can a man turn his head, and pretend that he just doesn't see?
Bob Dylan
Nothing can affect my voice, it's so bad.
Bob Dylan
I am a restless soul hungry perhaps wretched.
Bob Dylan
The only person you have to think about lying twice to is either yourself or to God. The press isn't either of them. And I just figured they're irrelevant.
Bob Dylan
It's always disappointing when people decide for one reason or another that they don't like your work anymore, but you can't try to please people, because then you're just going to be doing - you'll never live it down, y'know it'll always be dogging you around - you might be being a fake about the whole thing.
Bob Dylan
If I had wings, no one would ask me: should I fly?
Bob Dylan
The National Bank at profit sells road maps for the soul.
Bob Dylan
I was down in the sewer with some little lover.
Bob Dylan
You have to work out where your place is. And who you are. But we're all spirit. That's all we are, we're just walking dressed up in a suit of skin, and we're going to leave that behind.
Bob Dylan
There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke. But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate, so let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
Bob Dylan
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
Bob Dylan
I like America, just as everybody else does. I love America, I gotta say that. But America will be judged.
Bob Dylan
After a while you earn that privacy is something you can sell, but you can't buy it back.
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
Why Nicolas Sarkozy is the head of France, [he is] warm and extremely likeable.
Bob Dylan
I kinda live where I find myself.
Bob Dylan
The ghosts race towards the light, you can almost hear the heavy breathing spirits, all determined to get somewhere. New Orleans, unlike a lot of places you go back to and that don't have the magic anymore, still has got it. Night can swallow you up, yet none of it touches you. You can't see it, but you know it's here. Somebody's always sinking.
Bob Dylan
