More quotes by Bob Dylan
I'm good with songs I haven't written, if I like them. I'm glad I didn't write any of them. I already know how they go, so I have more freedom with them. I understand these songs. I've known them for 40 years, 50 years, maybe longer, and they make a lot of sense. So I'm not coming to them like a stranger.
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
Crimson flames tied through my ears rolling high and mighty traps, pounced with fire on flaming roads using ideas as my maps.
Bob Dylan
I'd been going though his trash. He knocked me down. I was glad to see him, even though he was banging my head against the sidewalk. Afterwards these bums come over and say, 'Did he get much money?' I say, 'Money'? That was Bob Dylan.
Bob Dylan
Little red wagon, little red bike, I ain’t no monkey but I know what I like.
Bob Dylan
People tell me it's a sin, to know and feel too much within.
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.
Bob Dylan
I didn't know whether to duck or to run, so I ran.
Bob Dylan
I read On the Road in maybe 1959. It changed my life like it changed everyone else's.
Bob Dylan
Can't keep track of it no more, son's becoming husbands to their mothers, and old men turning your daughters into whores.
Bob Dylan
Whatever colors you have in your mind, I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine.
Bob Dylan
When you asked me how I was doing, was that some kind of joke
Bob Dylan
My songs are personal music, they're not communal. I wouldn't want people singing along with me. It would sound funny. I'm not playing campfire meetings. I don't remember anyone singing along with Elvis, Carl Perkins or Little Richard.
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
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
Bob Dylan
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade, into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way.
Bob Dylan
You can't be happy by doing something groovy.
Bob Dylan
You use to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat, who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat.
Bob Dylan
Although the masters make the rules for the wise men and the fools, I've got nothing, Ma, to live up to.
Bob Dylan
He hands you a nickel, he hands you a dime. He asks you with a grin, if you're having a good time.
Bob Dylan
