More quotes by Bob Dylan
The sun's not yellow, its chicken!
Bob Dylan
I don't usually purge myself by writing anything about any type of quote, so-called, relationships.
Bob Dylan
If you want to know how to please a woman, just talk to a neuroscience major from Columbia.
Bob Dylan
She took off her wheel, took off her bell, took off her wig, said, how do I smell? I hot footed it barenaked out the window.
Bob Dylan
I was born a long way from where I belong and I am on my way home.
Bob Dylan
The best songs are the songs you write that you don't know anything about. They're an escape.
Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan was again an entirely new person - this time old, craggy, cynical, and world-weary, as in Not Dark Yet.
Bob Dylan
America was founded on the backs of slaves.
Bob Dylan
I feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Bob Dylan
I like the fans, but I don't feel an obligation that I have to be an example to them, like say maybe a baseball player would, or a football player or maybe some other type of musicians. I don't feel I have to really set an example that somebody else has to live up to.
Bob Dylan
I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings. And I've never been too impressed.
Bob Dylan
There doesn't seem to be any tomorrow. Every time I wake up, no matter in what position, it's always been today.
Bob Dylan
Get jailed, jump bail, join the Army if you fail.
Bob Dylan
I didn't come out of a cereal box.
Bob Dylan
You know, sometimes a person's reputation can be far more colossal than the influence of the person. I don't pay any attention to it anymore.
Bob Dylan
Who am I helping, what am I breaking, what am I giving, what am I taking?
Bob Dylan
I've been up the mountain and I had a choice. Should I come down? So I came down. God said, Okay, you've been up on the mountain, now you go down. You're on your own, free. Check in later, but now you're on your own.
Bob Dylan
I come from way north. We'd listen to radio shows all the time. I think I was the last generation, or pretty close to the last one, that grew up without TV.
Bob Dylan
I ain't looking to compete with you, beat, or cheat, or mistreat you, simplify you, classify you, deny, defy, or crucify you. All I really want to do is, baby, be friends with you.
Bob Dylan
I need all kinds of songs - fast ones, slow ones, minor key, ballads, rumbas - and they all get juggled around during a live show. I've been trying for years to come up with songs that have the feeling of a Shakespearean drama, so I'm always starting with that.
Bob Dylan
