"And here I sit so patiently" — Bob Dylan quote meaning

“And here I sit so patiently”

“...we are singing today of the WIPE-OUT GANG - the WIPE-OUT GANG buys, owns & operates the Insanity Factory - if you do not know where the Insanity Factory is located, you should hereby take two steps to the right, paint your teeth & go to sleep....”

“It [folk music] exceeded all human understanding, and if it called out to you, you could disappear and be sucked into it. I felt right at home in this mythical realm made up not with individuals so much as archetypes, vividly drawn archetypes of humanity, metaphysical in shape, each rugged soul filled with natural knowing and inner wisdom. Each demanding a degree of respect. I could believe in the full spectrum of it and sing about it. It was so real, so more true to life than life itself. It was life magnified.”

“Not what happens to you”

“Love is far greater than any label we give it. It moves beyond categories and definitions, beyond the neat lines of “this” or “that.”

“True philosophers make of dying their profession”
