I'd like to think that this applies to me...
"I would have liked to been able to give him the kinds of songs that he wanted, like 'Masters of War', Hard Rain', 'Gates of Eden', but those kinds of songs were written under different circumstances, and circumstances never repeat themselves. Not exactly. I couldn't get to those kinds of songs for him or anyone else. To do it, you've got to have power and dominion over the spirits. I had done it once, and once was enough. Someone would come along eventually who would have it again - someone who could see into things, the truth of things - not metaphorically either - but really see, like seeing into metal and making it melt, see it for what it was and reveal it for what it was with hard words and vicious insight." (Dylan, 2004, p218, 'Chronicles')
