They kill people here who stand up for their rights The system's just too damned corrupt It's always the same, the name of the game Is who do you know higher up

Really the truth is just a plain picture. A plain picture of, let's say, a tramp vomiting in the sewere. You know, and next door to the picture Mr. Rockefeller or Mr. C. W. Jones on the subway going to work. You know, any kind of picture. Just make a collage of pictures.

I wanted to understand things and then be free of them. I needed to learn how to telescope things, ideas. Things were too big to see all at once, like all the books in the library-everything laying around on all the tables.

A brilliant 1989 album, Oh Mercy some career retrospectives and two albums of American folk songs, with just Bob Dylan and his guitar and harmonica. All that culminated in the Grammy-winning comeback album, Time Out of Mind (1997). Once again, just as Dylan seemed to be out of it, he was back at the top of his game.

Gotta head full of ideas that are driving me insane.

Watch waterfalls of pity roar, you feel to moan but unlike before, you discover that you'd just be one more person crying.

In this ocean of hours I'm all the time drinking.

Freedom just around the corner for you, but with the truth so far off, what good will it do?

I am a restless soul hungry perhaps wretched.

People are crazy and times are strange ... I used to care but things have changed

Lay down the song you strum, And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum.

Some are masters of illusions, some are ministers of trade, all under the same delusion, all their beds unmade.
