Additional quotes by Bob Dylan

I was just too stubborn to ever be governed by enforced insanity.

Oh, sister, am I not a brother to you
And one deserving of affection?
And is our purpose not the same on this earth
To love and follow his direction?
...
Oh, sister, when I come to knock on your door
Don't turn away, you'll create sorrow
Time is an ocean but it ends at the shore
You may not see me tomorrow

Disillusioned words like bullets bark As human gods aim for their mark Make everything from toy guns that spark To flesh-colored Christs that glow in the dark It's easy to see without looking too far
That not much is really sacred

There are men who reach the moon when most of us can not peel off the ground - Bob Dylan
