Your old road is rapidly aging. Please get out of the new one If you can't lend your hand, For the times they are a-changin'.
Bob Dylan
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed, dignity never been photographed.
Bob Dylan
When I think of mystery, I don't think about myself. I think of the universe, like why does the moon rise when the sun falls? Caterpillars turn into butterflies? I really haven't remained a recluse.
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

Bob Dylan
The real power is in the hands of small groups of people and I don't think they have titles.
Bob Dylan
Despite everybody who has been born and has died, the world has just gone on. I mean, look at Napoleon -but we went right on. Look at Harpo Marx -the world went around, it didn't stop for a second. It's sad but true. John Kennedy, right?
Bob Dylan
The truth is far from you, so you know you got to lie. Then you're all the time defending what you can never justify.
Bob Dylan
My guard stood hard when abstract threats, too noble to neglect, deceived me into thinking, I had something to protect.
Bob Dylan
I thought that he was righteous, but he's vain. Oh, somethings a telling me I wear the ball and chain.
Bob Dylan
She speaks with a stutter and she and she walks with a hop. I don't know why I love her, but I just can't stop.
Bob Dylan
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
Bob Dylan
May you stay Forever Young
Bob Dylan
May you build a ladder to the stars and climb on every rung. May you stay forever young.
Bob Dylan
