Bob Dylan

Democracy don’t rule the world, you better get that in your head; this world is ruled by violence, but I guess that’s better left unsaid.

I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom.

A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and gets to bed at night, and in between he does what he wants to do.

Being noticed can be a burden. Jesus got himself crucified because he got himself noticed. So I disappear a lot.

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 theres some kind of change.

Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet.

These are our neighbours, our co-workers, friends’ children… the problem is closer than you think, but so is the solution.

Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.

Since the past is unreal and the future is unreal, all your thoughts are about nothing.

I have made this letter longer than usual because I lack the time to make it shorter.

I was gratified to be able to answer promptly, and I did. I said I didn’t know.

There are many spokes on the wheel of life. First, we’re here to explore new possibilities.

When you look at yourself from a universal standpoint, something inside always reminds or informs you that there are bigger and better things to worry about.

Unless you know who you are, you will always be vulnerable to what people say.

Love thy neighbour as yourself, but choose your neighbourhood.

It’s not the time to look for excuses.

I don’t think I’ve made mistakes. Every time somebody said I made a mistake, they do the polls and my numbers go up, so I guess I haven’t made any mistakes.

What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do especially in other people’s minds. When you’re traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don’t have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road.

Smugglin’ that by me? That’s like tryin’ to smuggle sunrise past a rooster.

When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

Whenever you think it’s the end, it’s probably just the start of something else.
