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.

Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right, here I am.

The radio makes hideous sounds.

There are degrees of happiness. You go from one to the other and then back again. It's hard to be completely happy when those around us are suffering and groaning from hunger.
Bob Dylan
Image
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

People are going to say, ‘Well, it’s not very truthful.’ But a songwriter doesn’t care about what’s truthful. What he cares about is what should’ve happened, what could’ve happened. That’s its own kind of truth. It’s like people who read Shakespeare plays, but they never see a Shakespeare play. I think they just use his name.

Mama's in the factory, she ain't got no shoes. Daddy's in the alley, he's looking for food.

Feeling funny in my mind, Lord I believe I'm fixing to die Well, I don't mind dying But I hate to leave my children crying Well, I look over yonder to that burying ground Look over yonder to that burying ground Sure seems lonesome, Lord, when the sun goes down

Music can save people, but it can't in the commercial way it's being used. It's just too much. It's pollution.
Bob Dylan
Image
I thought that he was righteous, but he's vain. Oh, somethings a telling me I wear the ball and chain.
Bob Dylan
Image
Suddenly I found you and the spirit in me sings, Don't have to look no further, You're the soul of many things.
Bob Dylan

Abe said, where do you want this killing done? God said, out on highway 61.

There would be brilliant songs, but, as [Bob] Dylan admitted on the recent Martin Scorsese documentary about him (No Direction Home), the specific muse that inspired It's Alright Ma would not return.

People disagreeing everywhere you look makes you wanna stop and read a book.

I said, you know they refused Jesus, too. He said, you're not him.

For them that must obey authority/That they do not respect in any degree/Who despise their jobs, their destinies/Speak jealously of them that are free
Bob Dylan

Anybody can be specific and obvious. That's always been the easy way. It's not that it's so difficult to be unspecific and less obvious it's just that there's nothing, absolutely nothing, to be specific and obvious about.

I fought with my twin, the enemy within.

Bob Dylan wasn't a big star early on it was the release of his Greatest Hits album in 1967, and the mainstream success of the stoner anthem Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 (Everybody must get stoned!), that really put him on the mainstream map.

I'll remember you. When I've forgotten all the rest.You to me were true. You to me were the best.
