“Not I, not I, but the wind that blows through me!”
Song of a Man who has Come Through (1917)

Don't Fade On Me, written with Mike Campbell
Lyrics, Wildflowers (1994)

Bubbles : A Self-Portrait (1976), p. 114
Context: I needed to sing — desperately. My voice poured out more easily because I was no longer singing for anyone's approval; I was beyond caring about the public's reaction, I just wanted to enjoy myself. … I had found a kind of serenity, a new maturity, as a result of my childrens' problems. I didn't feel better or stronger than anyone else but it seemed no longer important whether everyone loved me or not — more important now was for me to love them. Feeling that way turns your whole life around; living becomes the act of giving.

“You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows”
Song lyrics, Bringing It All Back Home (1965), Subterranean Homesick Blues

“fate is not just whose cooking smells good, but which way the wind blows”

Spellbound (November 1837)
Context: p>The night is darkening round me,
The wild winds coldly blow;
But a tyrant spell has bound me
And I cannot, cannot go.The giant trees are bending
Their bare boughs weighed with snow,
And the storm is fast descending,
And yet I cannot go.Clouds beyond clouds above me,
Wastes beyond wastes below;
But nothing drear can move me—
I will not, cannot go.</p
