More quotes by Bob Dylan
It's not easy to define poetry.
Bob Dylan
...how many times must the cannon balls fly Before they're forever banned?
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
The confessional singer-songwriter movement of the 1970s was in full swing, and Bob Dylan's emotional album [ Blood on the Tracks] resonated with the times. There would be other hits, but never the same alchemy of emotion and time.
Bob Dylan
They said, congratulations you got what it takes. They sent him back to the rat race without any brakes.
Bob Dylan
You must be vulnerable to be sensitive to reality. And to be vulnerable is just another way of saying that one has nothing more to lose. I don't have anything but darkness to lose.
Bob Dylan
People disagreeing everywhere you look makes you wanna stop and read a book.
Bob Dylan
your problem is that wanna better word for world
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
Look, when I started out, mainstream culture was Sinatra, Perry Como, Andy Williams, Sound of Music. There was no fitting into it then and of course, there's no fitting into it now.
Bob Dylan
Either I'm too sensitive, or else I'm gettin' soft
Bob Dylan
Get jailed, jump bail, join the Army if you fail.
Bob Dylan
On the stone that remains carved next to his name, his epitaph plain, only a pawn in their game.
Bob Dylan
In songs, you have to tell people about something they didn't see and weren't there for, and you have to do it as if you were.
Bob Dylan
Patriotism is the last refuge to which a scoundrel clings.
Bob Dylan
A record ... is a statement, it's its own statement, its own entity, rather than being about something else. If I was a painter ... I don't paint the chair, I would paint feelings about the chair.
Bob Dylan
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
Hold it, Doc, a world war passed through my brain. He said, Nurse, get your pad, this boy's insane.
Bob Dylan
We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it
Bob Dylan
People think that singing and playing is easy. It's not. It's easy to strum along, but if you actually want to really play, where it's important, that's a hard thing and not too many people are good at it.
Bob Dylan
