Bob Dylan

Being on tour is like being in limbo. It’s like going from nowhere to nowhere.

Well, the future for me is already a thing of the past.

Although the masters make the rules for the wise men and the fools got nothing, Ma, to live up to.

Yesterday’s just a memory, tomorrow is never what it’s supposed to be.

All this talk about equality. The only thing people really have in common is that they are all going to die.

Just because you like my stuff doesn’t mean I owe you anything.

Do it! People who succeed don’t just sit and think about what they want to do. They take meaningful, purposeful, directional action consistently and persistently. Every step they take puts them toward the outcome they’re looking for.

Well, the future for me is already a thing of the past.

I didn’t just come in on a load of turnips!

It is a most mortifying reflection for a man to consider what he has done, compared to what he might have done.

All heiresses are beautiful.

Why would I want a place of my own? Then I would have to things worry about, like doing laundry and having food in the fridge.

I think us bad b*tc*es is a gift from God.

There is no sadder sight than a young pessimist, except an old optimist.

I only ask to be free, the butterflies are free.

I’m the one that has to die when it’s time for me to die, so let me live my life, the way I want to.

So I’ve seen life as one long learning process. And if I see – you know, if I fly on somebody else’s airline and find the experience is not a pleasant one, which it wasn’t in – 21 years ago, then I’d think, well, you know, maybe I can create the kind of airline that I’d like to fly on.

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.

Life has two rules: 1. Never quite 2. Always remember 1.

I have lived too long to cherish many illusions about the essential high-mindedness of men when brought into stark confrontation with the issue of control over their security, and their property interests.

When you get to the top, don’t forget to send the elevator down for the next guy.
