Bob Dylanis an American singer-songwriter, artist and writer. He has been influential in popular music and culture for more than five decades.

Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb/I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from/Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer/It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.
Your old road is rapidly aging. Please get out of the new one If you can't lend your hand, For the times they are a-changin'.

How many years can some people exist before they're allowed to be free...
Heard ten thousand whispering and nobody listening. Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughing. Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter.
If you don't underestimate me, I won't underestimate you.
But I would not feel so all alone, everybody must get stoned.

I met a young man who was wounded in love, I met another man who was wounded in hatred.
The people in my songs are all me.
One should never be where one does not belong.
I hurt easy, I just don't show it. You can hurt someone and not even know it.
Passion is a young man’s game. Young people can be passionate. Older people gotta be more wise. I mean, you’re around awhile, you leave certain things to the young. Don’t try to act like you’re young. You could really hurt yourself.
