Additional quotes by Bob Dylan

Visions of your chestnut mare shoot through my head and are makin' me see stars.

Lay down the song you strum,
And rest yourself 'neath the strength of strings
No voice can hope to hum.

The longer you live, the better you get.

And Ezra Pound and T. S. Eliot Fighting in the captain's tower While calypso singers laugh at them And fishermen hold flowers... - Bob Dylan
