“I think that this world is just a passing through place and that the dead have eyes and that even the unborn can see and I don’t care who knows it.” -- Bob Dylan
This Dylan quote is from an interview that is included in the extensive liner notes of the 5 CD set called: Biograph. Here are some of the words that precede and follow the quote as written here: "When people don't get threatened and challenged, I mean in some kind of way, they don't get confronted, never have to make decisions, they never take a stand, they never grow, live their lives in a fishtank, stay in the same old scene forever, die and never get a break or a chance to say goodbye. I have views contrary to all that. I think that this world is just a passing through place and that the dead have eyes and that even the unborn can see and I don't care who knows it. I don't know. I can go off on tangents..."
As an amateur Dylanologist, I'd appreciate the source for this quote, Gil.
