Come Senators, Congressman, please heed the call, don't stand in the doorway, don't block the hall.
Bob Dylan

Every day is the same thing out the door Feel further away then ever before Some things in life, it gets too late to learn Well, I'm lost somewhere I must have made a few bad turns

You might be a rock and roll addict prancing on the stage. You might have drugs at your command, women in a cage.

Inside the museum infinity goes up on trial. Voices echo, 'This is what salvation must be like after a while.' But Mona Lisa must have had the highway blues you can tell by the way she smiles.
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

I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken, I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children, And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.

Everybody has their own idea of what's a poet. Robert Frost, President Johnson, T.S.Eliot, Rudolf Valentino - they're all poets. I like to think of myself as the one who carries the light bulb.

People are going to say, ‘Well, it’s not very truthful.’ But a songwriter doesn’t care about what’s truthful. What he cares about is what should’ve happened, what could’ve happened. That’s its own kind of truth. It’s like people who read Shakespeare plays, but they never see a Shakespeare play. I think they just use his name.

Situations have ended sad, Relationships have all been bad.

I don't really have a retirement plan.
