A poem is a naked person… Some people say that I am a poet.
But even the President of the United States sometimes must have to stand naked.
I’ve never written a political song. Songs can’t save the world. I’ve gone through all that.
Well, I don’t know, but I’ve been told the streets in heaven are lined with gold. I ask you how things could get much worse if the Russians happen to get up there first; Wowee! pretty scary!

He who is not busy being born is busy dying.
If I wasn’t Bob Dylan, I’d probably think that Bob Dylan has a lot of answers myself.
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.
Ah, but I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now.
Money doesn’t talk, it swears.
A mistake is to commit a misunderstanding.
People seldom do what they believe in. They do what is convenient, then repent.
What’s money? A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.
