Famous quotes containing the words dylan and/or dead:
“Sailin’ ‘round the world in a dirty gondola
Oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola!”
—Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
“The way in which men cling to old institutions after the life has departed out of them, and out of themselves, reminds me of those monkeys which cling by their tails—aye, whose tails contract about the limbs, even the dead limbs, of the forest, and they hang suspended beyond the hunter’s reach long after they are dead. It is of no use to argue with such men. They have not an apprehensive intellect, but merely, as it were a prehensile tail.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
