More quotes by Bob Dylan
We're constantly being bombarded by insulting and humiliating music, which people are making for you the way they make those Wonder Bread products. Just as food can be bad for your system, music can be bad for your spiritual and emotional feelings. It might taste good or clever, but in the long run, it's not going to do anything for you.
Bob Dylan
You say you're looking for someone who'll pick you up each time you fall, to gather flowers constantly and to come each time you call, a lover your life and nothing more. But it ain't me, babe.
Bob Dylan
Stay free of petty jealousies, live by no man's code, and hold your judgment for yourself, lest you wind up on this road.
Bob Dylan
It's not important what other people call you. If you yourself know you're a fake, that's tougher to live with.
Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan
Music can save people, but it can't in the commercial way it's being used. It's just too much. It's pollution.

It was [meeting with Nicolas Sarkozy] like looking at my mirror image.

Gonna change my way of thinking, make my self a different set of rules. Gonna put my good foot forward and stop being influenced by fools.
Bob Dylan
