Bob Dylan

Famous quotes containing the words bob dylan, bob and/or dylan:

    “Well, you look so pretty in it
    Honey, can I jump on it sometime?
    Yes, I just wanna see
    If it’s really that expensive kind
    You know it balances on your head
    Just like a mattress balances
    On a bottle of wine
    Your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat.”
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    “It was because of me. Rumors reached Inman that I had made a deal with Bob Dole whereby Dole would fill a paper sack full of doggie poo, set it on fire, put it on Inman’s porch, ring the doorbell, and then we would hide in the bushes and giggle when Inman came to stamp out the fire. I am not proud of this. But this is what we do in journalism.”
    —Roger Simon, U.S. syndicated columnist. Quoted in Newsweek, p. 15 (January 31, 1990)

    “You got a lotta nerve
    To say you are my friend
    When I was down
    You just stood there grinning.”
    —Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)
