Laughed Quote by Simmone Howell
““I’m glad it was Dylan who laughed first. Once he did I felt myself unravel. I giggled and he giggled. We were the experiment. And then there came a time when we weren’t laughing. When we locked eyes and breathed each other’s breath. Ohmystars! The firmament shakes and then everything settles. In the end everything settles.””

![“I always remember what Bob Dylan said in that [Martin] Scorsese documentary on him. When he was asked about Joan Baez's complaints about the way he treated her when they were together, Dylan laughed and said, "It's impossible to be in love and wise at the same time."” quote by Richard Gere](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/0b4/richard-gere-3534_bob_i-always-remember-what-bob-dylan-said-in_1638805.jpg)
