Bob Dylan
Bob Dylanis an American singer-songwriter, artist and writer. He has been influential in popular music and culture for more than five decades. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s when his songs chronicled social unrest, although Dylan repudiated suggestions from journalists that he was a spokesman for his generation.

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.
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.
How many roads must a man walk down.. Before you can call him a Man..
Everybody knows by now that there's a gazillion books on me either out or coming out in the near future. So I'm encouraging anybody who's ever met me, heard me or even seen me, to get in on the action and scribble their own book. You never know, somebody might have a great book in them.
Bent out of shape from society's pliers, cares not to come up any higher, but rather get you down in the hole that he's in.
Here's the thing with me and the religious thing. This is the flat-out truth: I find the religiosity and philosophy in the music. I don't find it anywhere else.
I think women rule the world and that no man has ever done anything that a woman either hasn't allowed him to do or encouraged him to do.
I say there're no depressed words just depressed minds.
Democracy don't rule the world, You'd better get that in your head; This world is ruled by violence, But I guess that's better left unsaid.
All this talk about equality. The only thing people really have in common is that they are all going to die.
