Additional quotes by Bob Dylan

People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but things have changed

It's like going out to the desert and screaming and then having little kids throw their sandbox at you. I'm only 24.

'Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood
When blackness was a virtue, the road was full of mud.
I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form,
'Come in,' she said, 'I'll give you shelter from the storm.'
