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
Image
Morality has nothing in common with politics.
Bob Dylan
Image
I don't know if I call myself a poet or not. I would like to, but I'm not really qualified to make that decision, because I come in on such a back door, that I don't know what a Robert Frost or a [John] Keats or a T.S. Eliot would really think of my stuff.
Bob Dylan
Image
Art can lead you to God. I think that's the purpose of everything. If it's not doing that, what's it doing? It's leading you the other way. It's certainly not leading you nowhere.
Bob Dylan

Everything in New Orleans is a good idea.
Bob Dylan

Praise be to Nero's Neptune The Titanic sails at dawn And everybody's shouting Which Side Are You On? And Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot Fighting in the captain's tower While calypso singers laugh at them And fishermen hold flowers.
Bob Dylan
Image
Half of the people can be part right all of the time, Some of the people can be all right part of the time. I think Abraham Lincoln said that. 'I'll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours,' I said that.
Bob Dylan
Image
I wouldn't even think of playing music if I was born in these times. I wouldn't even listen to the radio.
Bob Dylan
Image
People think they know me from my songs. But my repertoire of songs is so wide-ranging that you'd have to be a madman to figure out the characteristics of the person who wrote all those songs.
Bob Dylan
Image
Too much of nothing can turn a man into a liar. It can cause one man to sleep on nails and another to eat fire.
Bob Dylan
Image
If I had rubies, riches, and crowns, I'd buy the whole world and change things around.
Bob Dylan
Image
You can't be happy by doing something groovy.
Bob Dylan
Image
The inmates and prisoners, I found they were my kind, and it was there inside the bars I found my peace of mind.
Bob Dylan
Image
I'm sittin' on my watch so I can be on time.
Bob Dylan
Image
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children.
Bob Dylan
Image
There were only a few seats left in coach and Bob found himself seated next to a young female fan. 'I can't believe I'm sitting next to Bob Dylan!' she screamed.'Pinch yourself,' said Bob.
Bob Dylan
Image
The land created me. I'm wild and lonesome. Even as I travel the cities, I'm more at home in the vacant lots.
Bob Dylan
Image
All the money you made will never buy back your soul.
Bob Dylan
Image
Let me drink from the waters where the mountain streams flood Let the smell of wildflowers flow free through my blood Let me sleep in your meadows with the green grassy leaves Let me walk down the highway with my brother in peace Let me die in my footsteps Before I go down under the ground.
Bob Dylan

I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul.
