Bob Dylan quotes
Popularly regarded as the finest American songwriter of all time, Bob Dylan is synonymous with American pop culture. His music has been influential in American civil rights and anti-war movements in past decades, and his lyrics have brought attention to great social inequality and have appealed to the American counterculture.
As well as his popular music, Dylan has produced eight books of artwork, and he was the first musician to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. His lyrics and various published works are packed with notions of justice, equality, and peace, and many of his fans turn to his words in times of struggle to pick themselves up.
