More quotes by Bob Dylan
I play these [folk acoustic] concerts and I ask myself, 'Would you come see me tonight?' - and I'd have to answer truthfully, 'No, I wouldn't come. I'd rather be doin' something else, really I would. That something else is rock... The words are pictures, and the rock's gonna help me flesh out the colors of the pictures. (1965)
Bob Dylan
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings. And I've never been too impressed.
Bob Dylan
Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth. None of them along the line know what any of it is worth.
Bob Dylan
Good and bad, I define these terms, quite clear, no doubt, somehow.
Bob Dylan
You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.
Bob Dylan
Having hits buries a singer in the past. A lot of singers hide in the past because it's safer back there. If you've ever heard today's country music, you'll know what I'm talking about.
Bob Dylan
If you try to be anyone but yourself, you will fail if you are not true to your own heart, you will fail. Then again, there's no success like failure
Bob Dylan
The purpose of art is to stop time.
Bob Dylan
How many a year has passed and gone and many gamble has been lost and won, and many a road taken by a friend and each one I've never seen again.
Bob Dylan
The world of research has gone berserk. Too much paper work.
Bob Dylan
As I stepped to the stage to pick up my degree, and the locusts sang off in the distance.
Bob Dylan
Loneliness, tenderness, high society, notoriety, you fight for the throne and you travel alone.
Bob Dylan
Despite everybody who has been born and has died, the world has just gone on. I mean, look at Napoleon -but we went right on. Look at Harpo Marx -the world went around, it didn't stop for a second. It's sad but true. John Kennedy, right?
Bob Dylan
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans.
Bob Dylan
With your silhouette when the sunlight dims Into your eyes where the moonlight swims, And your match-book songs and your gypsy hymns, Who among them would try to impress you? -Bob Dylan, Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands” (1966)
Bob Dylan
Through the mad mystic hammering of the wild ripping hail The sky cracked its poems in naked wonder
Bob Dylan
You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing.
Bob Dylan
If God is on our side, he'll stop the next war.
Bob Dylan
...how many times must the cannon balls fly Before they're forever banned?
Bob Dylan
You will find God in the church of your choice.
Bob Dylan
