Bob Dylan

I don’t think the human mind can comprehend the past and the future. They are both just illusions that can manipulate you into thinking theres some kind of change.

A mistake is to commit a misunderstanding.

I am against nature. I don’t dig nature at all. I think nature is very unnatural. I think the truly natural things are dreams, which nature can’t touch with decay.

Chaos is a friend of mine.

Although the masters make the rules for the wise men and the fools got nothing, Ma, to live up to.

People seldom do what they believe in. They do what is convenient, then repent.

Maybe in the 90s or possibly in the next century people will look upon the 80s as the age of masturbation, when it was taken to the limit; that might be all that’s going on right now in a big way.

Talent does what it can; genius does what it must.

I love the beach. I love the sea. All my life I live within – in front of the sea.

The difference between you and the person you envy, is that you settle for less.

A day wasted on others is not wasted on one’s self.

If you genuinely want something, don’t wait for it — teach yourself to be impatient.

I like to surprise myself.

Every damn thing you do in this life, you have to pay for.

Trees are among the most useful things grown.

You don’t need a pack of wild horses to learn how to make a sandwich.

Do any of us really have a clue? We don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow. Or what word will come up in a conversation that will change our lives. You can be in the shower and scrubbing under your arm and find a lump that wasn’t there yesterday. I’m doing things here and now. Life is evolving. Every day life evolves.

As is a tale, so is life: not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters.

Freedom of speech does not protect you from the consequences of saying stupid shit

Children have helped me a lot.

The whole secret of life is to be interested in one thing profoundly and in a thousand things well.
