I play these [folk acoustic] concerts and I ask myself, 'Would you come see me tonight?' - and I'd have to answer truthfully, 'No, I wouldn't come. I'd rather be doin' something else, really I would. That something else is rock... The words are pictures, and the rock's gonna help me flesh out the colors of the pictures. (1965)
Bob Dylan
Image
The land created me. I'm wild and lonesome. Even as I travel the cities, I'm more at home in the vacant lots.
Bob Dylan
Image
Life has its ups and downs, and time has to be your partner. Really, time is your soul mate.
Bob Dylan
Image
An artist has got to be careful never really to arrive at a place where he thinks he's AT somewhere. You always have to realize that you're constantly in a state of becoming. And, as long as you can stay in that realm you'll sort of be alright.
Bob Dylan

Can you please crawl out your window? Use your arms and your legs, it won't ruin you
Bob Dylan
Image
Democracy don't rule the world, You'd better get that in your head This world is ruled by violence, But I guess that's better left unsaid.
Bob Dylan
Image
I fought with my twin, the enemy within.
Bob Dylan
Image
I just don't hear anyone else making the music I'm making in my head, so I'll have to do it myself.
Bob Dylan
Image
Jesus tapped me on the shoulder and said, Bob, why are you resisting me? I said, I'm not resisting you! He said, You gonna follow me? I said, I've never thought about that before! He said, When you're not following me, you're resisting me.
Bob Dylan
Image
There's not even room enough to be anywhere/It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.../I was born here and I'll die here against my will/I know it looks like I'm moving, but I'm standing still.
Bob Dylan

Ain't no use jiving, ain't no use joking, everything is broken.
Bob Dylan
Image
You know, the streets are filled with vipers Who've lost all ray of hope You know, it ain't even safe no more In the palace of the Pope

Like a Rolling Stone [of Bob Dylan] is a kiss-off song like none before or since.

I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul.
Bob Dylan

I've never written a political song. Songs can't save the world. I've gone through all that.
Bob Dylan
Image
I wanted to understand things and then be free of them. I needed to learn how to telescope things, ideas. Things were too big to see all at once, like all the books in the library-everything laying around on all the tables. You might be able to put it all into one paragraph or into one verse of a song if you could get it right.
Bob Dylan
Image
Let me drink from the waters where the mountain streams flood Let the smell of wildflowers flow free through my blood Let me sleep in your meadows with the green grassy leaves Let me walk down the highway with my brother in peace Let me die in my footsteps Before I go down under the ground.
Bob Dylan

It wouldn't kill you to stay the night anyway.
Bob Dylan

Once I went into songwriting, I figured I had to - I couldn't be a hellfire rock 'n' roller. But I could write hellfire lyrics.
Bob Dylan

Some of the old folk singers used to phrase things in an interesting way, and then, I got my style from seeing a lot of outdoor-type poets, who would recite their poetry. When you don't have a guitar, you recite things differently, and there used to be quite a few poets in the jazz clubs, who would recite with a different type of attitude.
