More quotes by Bob Dylan
We shouldn't confuse singers and performers with actors. Actors will say, My character this, and my character that. Like beating a dead horse. Who cares about the character? Just get up and act. You don't have to explain it to me.
Bob Dylan
Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb/I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from/Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer/It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
Bob Dylan
Feel like a broke-down engine, ain't got no drivin' wheel. You all been down and lonesome, you know just how a poor man feels.
Bob Dylan
Broken bottles, broken plates, broken switches, broken gates. Broken dishes, broken parts, streets are filled with broken hearts.
Bob Dylan
Loneliness, tenderness, high society, notoriety, you fight for the throne and you travel alone.
Bob Dylan
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.
Bob Dylan
Can't keep track of it no more, son's becoming husbands to their mothers, and old men turning your daughters into whores.
Bob Dylan
Trying to create a next world war, he found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor, he said I never engaged in this kind of thing before, but yes I think it can be very easily done.
Bob Dylan
I accept chaos. I am not sure whether it accepts me. I know some people are terrified of the bomb. But then some people are terrified to be seen carrying a modern screen magazine. Experience teaches us that silence terrifies people the most.
Bob Dylan
My father probably thought the capital of the world was wherever he was at the time. It couldn't possibly be anyplace else. Where he and his wife were in their own home, that, for them, was the capital of the world.
Bob Dylan
You don't count the dead, when god's on your side.
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
I've never been able to understand the seriousness of it all, the seriousness of pride. People talk, act, live as if they're never going to die. And what do they leave behind? Nothing. Nothing but a mask.
Bob Dylan
There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke. But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate, so let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
Bob Dylan
They said, congratulations you got what it takes. They sent him back to the rat race without any brakes.
Bob Dylan
I make my stand and remain as I am, and bid farewell and not give a damn.
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
If you want to keep your memories, you first have to live them.
Bob Dylan
I've never written a political song. Songs can't save the world. I've gone through all that.
Bob Dylan
I became interested in folk music because I had to make it somehow.
Bob Dylan
