More quotes by Bob Dylan
He's hell bent for destruction, he's afraid and confused, and his brain has been mismanaged with great skill.
Bob Dylan
your problem is that wanna better word for world
Bob Dylan
Life is more or less a lie, but then again, that's exactly the way we want it to be.
Bob Dylan
You use to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat, who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat.
Bob Dylan
Death to me means nothing as long as I can die fast.
Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan was again an entirely new person - this time old, craggy, cynical, and world-weary, as in Not Dark Yet.
Bob Dylan
And it dawned on me that I might have to change my inner thought patterns... that I would have to start believing in possibilities that I wouldn't have allowed before, that I had been closing my creativity down to a very narrow, controllable scale... that things had become too familiar and I might have to disorientate myself. p.71
Bob Dylan
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade, into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way.
Bob Dylan
You might be a rock and roll addict prancing on the stage. You might have drugs at your command, women in a cage.
Bob Dylan
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul.
Bob Dylan
There would be brilliant songs, but, as [Bob] Dylan admitted on the recent Martin Scorsese documentary about him (No Direction Home), the specific muse that inspired It's Alright Ma would not return.
Bob Dylan
Madonna, she still has not showed, we see this empty cage now corrode, where her cape of the stage once had flowed, the fiddler he now steps to the road, on the back of the fish truck that loads, while my conscience explodes.
Bob Dylan
It's not important what other people call you. If you yourself know you're a fake, that's tougher to live with.
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
I never saw myself as a folk singer.
Bob Dylan
Here's the thing with me and the religious thing. This is the flat-out truth: I find the religiosity and philosophy in the music. I don't find it anywhere else.
Bob Dylan
He gambled all his life, he's got 27 children, yet he's never had a wife.
Bob Dylan
I used to think it's better if you just live and die and no one knows who you are.
Bob Dylan
He not busy being born is busy dying.
Bob Dylan
Technology is mechanical and contrary to the emotions that inform a person's life. The country music field has especially been hit hard by this. All my songs have been written by people who went out of fashion years ago. Just like da Vinci and Renoir and van Gogh. Nobody paints like that anymore. But it can't be wrong to try.
Bob Dylan
