More quotes by Bob Dylan
Everybody knows by now that there's a gazillion books on me either out or coming out in the near future. So I'm encouraging anybody who's ever met me, heard me or even seen me, to get in on the action and scribble their own book. You never know, somebody might have a great book in them.
Bob Dylan
Everyone of them words rang true and glowed like burning coal, pouring off every page like it was written in my soul from me to you.
Bob Dylan
When the jelly faced women all sneeze, hear the one with the mustache say I can't find my knees.
Bob Dylan
My songs always sound a lot better in person than they do on the record.
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
Fortune or fame, you must pick one or the other, though neither of them are to be what they claim.
Bob Dylan
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
Experience teaches us that silence terrifies people the most.
Bob Dylan
The National Bank at profit sells road maps for the soul.
Bob Dylan
Shadows are falling and I've been here all day/It's too hot to sleep, time is running away/Feel like my soul has turned into steel/I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal.
Bob Dylan
My songs were influenced not so much by poetry on the page but by poetry being recited by the poets who recited poems with jazz bands.
Bob Dylan
The truth was obscure, Too profound and too pure, To live it you had to explode
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
There's only one day at a time here, then it's tonight and then tomorrow will be today again.
Bob Dylan
You'll never be greater than yourself.
Bob Dylan
I gaze into the doorway of temptation's angry flame And every time I pass that way I always hear my name
Bob Dylan
I ain't looking to compete with you, beat, or cheat, or mistreat you, simplify you, classify you, deny, defy, or crucify you. All I really want to do is, baby, be friends with you.
Bob Dylan
Seven shots ring out like the ocean's pounding roar, there's seven people dead on a South Dakota farm.
Bob Dylan
If there's an original thought out there, I could use one right now.
Bob Dylan
If you try to be anyone but yourself, you will fail if you are not true to your own heart, you will fail. Then again, there's no success like failure
Bob Dylan
