More quotes by Bob Dylan
You walk into the room like a camel and then put your eyes in your pockets and your nose on the ground.
Bob Dylan
If you like someone's work, the important thing is to be exposed to everything that person has been exposed to. Anyone who wants to be a songwriter should listen to as much folk music as they can, study the form and structure of stuff that has been around for 100 years.
Bob Dylan
But even the President of the United States sometimes must have to stand naked.
Bob Dylan
An artist has got to be constantly in a state of becoming.
Bob Dylan
A song is like a dream, and you try to make it come true. They're like strange countries that you have to enter.
Bob Dylan
Most songs have bridges in them, to distract listeners from the main verses of a song so they don't get bored. My songs don't have a lot of bridges because lyric poetry never had them.
Bob Dylan
The songs are my lexicon. I believe the songs.
Bob Dylan
Life is sad, life is a bust, all you can do is do what you must.
Bob Dylan
Her profession's her religion, her sin is lifelessness.
Bob Dylan
I've never gone for having a great voice, for cultivating one. I'm still not doing it now.
Bob Dylan
Ring the bells for the blind and deaf.
Bob Dylan
What drives me to you, drives me insane.
Bob Dylan
Dealing with my own life takes priority over other people dealing with my life.
Bob Dylan
God got the power, man has got his vanity. Man gotta choose before God can set him free.
Bob Dylan
Someone handed me Mexico City Blues in St. Paul [Minnesota] in 1959 and it blew my mind. It was the first poetry that spoke my own language.
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
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
Fortune or fame, you must pick one or the other, though neither of them are to be what they claim.
Bob Dylan
It will scramble your head and drag your brain about, sometimes you gotta do like Elvis did and shoot the damn thing out.
Bob Dylan
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
