“It was wonderful, a stunning happy ending to what began as another tragic rock & roll story, as if Bob Dylan had been arrested in Miami for jacking off in a seedy little XXX theater while stroking the spine of a fat young boy.”
“Bob Dylan sang about a hard rain that was going to fall, and Shadow wondered if that rain had fallen yet, or if it was something that was still going to happen.”
“It's quite widespread in rock culture, that mythology of the shooting star.I'd rather be the North star. As bob (Dylan) says, you can navigate by it.”
“If I wasn't Bob Dylan, I'd probably think that Bob Dylan has a lot of answers myself.”
“What the American public wants in the theater is a tragedy with a happy ending.”
“It had been a wonderful evening and what I needed now, to give it the perfect ending, was a little of the Ludwig Van.”
