More quotes by Bob Dylan
Whatever colors you have in your mind, I'll show them to you and you'll see them shine.
Bob Dylan
You don't necessarily have to write to be a poet. Some people work in gas stations and they're poets. I don't call myself a poet, because I don't like the word. I'm a trapeze artist.
Bob Dylan
Love is all there is, it makes the world go 'round Love and only love, it can't be denied No matter what you think about it You just won't be able to do without it Take a tip from one who's tried
Bob Dylan
Ain't no use jiving, ain't no use joking, everything is broken.
Bob Dylan
When I was growing up - say in the fifties - the thirties to me didn't even exist. I couldn't even imagine them in any kind of way, so I don't expect anyone growing up now is gonna even understand what the sixties were all about, anymore than I could the thirties or twenties.
Bob Dylan
Bullets can harm you and death can disarm you, but no, you will not be deceived. Stripped of all virtue as you crawl through the dirt, you can give but you cannot receive.
Bob Dylan
They're selling postcards of the hanging.
Bob Dylan
Experience teaches us that silence terrifies people the most.
Bob Dylan
Everybody has their own idea of what's a poet. Robert Frost, President Johnson, T.S.Eliot, Rudolf Valentino - they're all poets. I like to think of myself as the one who carries the light bulb.
Bob Dylan
Yes, and only if my own true love was waiting If I could hear his heart softly pounding Yes, and only if he was lying by me Would I lie in my bed once again.
Bob Dylan
You can't imagine parlor ballads drifting out of high-rise multi-towered buildings. That kind of music existed in a more timeless state of life.
Bob Dylan
Art can lead you to God. I think that's the purpose of everything. If it's not doing that, what's it doing? It's leading you the other way. It's certainly not leading you nowhere.
Bob Dylan
I can't see myself singing the same song twice in a row. That's terrible.
Bob Dylan
Lay down the song you strum, And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings No voice can hope to hum.
Bob Dylan
Come mothers and fathers Throughout the land And don't criticize What you can't understand Your sons and your daughters Are beyond your command Your old road is Rapidly agin' Please get out of the new one If you can't lend your hand For the times they are a-changin'.
Bob Dylan
The highlight of my career? That's easy, Elvis recording one of my songs.
Bob Dylan
Well the book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy, the law of the jungle and the sea are your only teachers.
Bob Dylan
The ghosts race towards the light, you can almost hear the heavy breathing spirits, all determined to get somewhere. New Orleans, unlike a lot of places you go back to and that don't have the magic anymore, still has got it. Night can swallow you up, yet none of it touches you. You can't see it, but you know it's here. Somebody's always sinking.
Bob Dylan
A lot of people don't have much food on their table. But they got a lot of forks 'n knives. And they got to cut somethin'.
Bob Dylan
The executioner's face is always well hidden.
Bob Dylan
