Quote by Bob Dylan

Well, I don't know, but I've been told the streets in heaven are lined with gold. I ask you how things could get much worse if the Russians happen to get up there first; Wowee! pretty scary!

Well, I don't know, but I've been told the streets in heaven

Summary

This quote playfully suggests that even the notion of Russians reaching heaven before others is a cause for concern. By contrasting the image of streets in heaven lined with gold with the fear of Russians beating everyone to it, the quote critiques societal priorities and reveals a tendency to prioritize material wealth over higher ideals. It satirizes the irrationality of worrying about who gets to heaven first, highlighting how focusing on such trivial matters distracts from more significant issues.
