More quotes by Bob Dylan
In this ocean of hours I'm all the time drinking.
Bob Dylan
Don't get up gentlemen. I'm only passing through!
Bob Dylan
That's another way of writing a song, of course. Just talking to somebody that ain't there. That's the best way. That's the truest way. Then it just becomes a question of how heroic your speech is. To me, it's something to strive after.
Bob Dylan
There used to be a time when the idea of heroes was important. People grew up sharing those myths and legends and ideals. Now they grow up sharing McDonalds and Disneyland.
Bob Dylan
Nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street.
Bob Dylan
To live outside the law, you must be honest.
Bob Dylan
How many roads must a man walk down Before your can call him a man? . . . The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind, The answer is blowin' in the wind.
Bob Dylan
Advertising signs: they con you into thinking you're the one That can do what's never been done That can win what's never been won Meantime life outside goes on all around you
Bob Dylan
Ah, current music. What would that be? Ah, really, a lot of it sounds defective to me. It makes me restless.
Bob Dylan
I got this grave yard woman.
Bob Dylan
You’re a cow Give me some milk Or else go home
Bob Dylan
I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans.
Bob Dylan
Everything in New Orleans is a good idea.
Bob Dylan
People are crazy and times are strange ... I used to care but things have changed
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
I'm a liberal to a degree, I want everybody to be free. But if you think that I'll let Barry Goldwater move in next door.
Bob Dylan
I forgot more than you'll ever know.
Bob Dylan
Let the dead bury the dead, your time will come.
Bob Dylan
An artist has got to be constantly in a state of becoming.
Bob Dylan
An artist has got to be careful never really to arrive at a place where he thinks he's AT somewhere. You always have to realize that you're constantly in a state of becoming. And, as long as you can stay in that realm you'll sort of be alright.
Bob Dylan
