More quotes by Bob Dylan
She never stumbles, she's got no place to fall. She's nobody's child, the law can't touch her at all.
Bob Dylan
People have different emotional levels. Especially when you're young. Back then I guess most of my influences could be thought of as eccentric. Mass media had no overwhelming reach so I was drawn to the traveling performers passing through.
Bob Dylan
When you feel in your gut what you are and then dynamically pursue it - don't back down and don't give up - then you're going to mystify a lot of folks.
Bob Dylan
Let the dead bury the dead, your time will come.
Bob Dylan
There's enough songs for people to listen to, if they want to listen to songs. For every man, woman and child on earth, they could be sent, probaby, each of them, a hundred records, and never be repeated. There's enough songs. Unless someone's gonna come along with a pure heart and has something to say. That's a different story.
Bob Dylan
It's not easy to define poetry.
Bob Dylan
I started writing songs after I heard Hank Williams.
Bob Dylan
Having hits buries a singer in the past. A lot of singers hide in the past because it's safer back there. If you've ever heard today's country music, you'll know what I'm talking about.
Bob Dylan
For them that must obey authority/That they do not respect in any degree/Who despise their jobs, their destinies/Speak jealously of them that are free
Bob Dylan
I don't think the human mind can comprehend the past and the future. They are both just illusions that can manipulate you into thinking there's some kind of change.
Bob Dylan
I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom.
Bob Dylan
So happy just to be alive, Underneath the sky of blue, On this new morning, new morning, On this new morning with you.
Bob Dylan
I made a bargain with him, the chief in a world we can't see. (devil)
Bob Dylan
Why Nicolas Sarkozy is the head of France, [he is] warm and extremely likeable.
Bob Dylan
Good intentions can be evil, both hands are full of grease. You know, sometimes Satan comes as a man of peace.
Bob Dylan
Sometimes you just have to bite your upper lip and put sunglasses on.
Bob Dylan
I never read Freud. I've never been attracted to anything he has said, and I think he's started a lot of nonsense with psychiatry and that business. I don't think psychiatry can help or has helped anybody. I think it's a big fraud (pun not intended) on the public.
Bob Dylan
Sailin' 'round the world in a dirty gondola Oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola!
Bob Dylan
There's only one day at a time here, then it's tonight and then tomorrow will be today again.
Bob Dylan
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
Bob Dylan
