So You Thought You Knew Dylan? Hah!: "As the Sphinx holds forth with what is, to put it mildly, atypical frankness, he admits to remarkably unhip tastes and unlikely points of reference. He wonders why he was not one of the three members of Peter, Paul and Mary...
He had no use for 'Ulysses,' found Balzac hilarious and says he once derived an album from Chekhov's short stories. What he called typically quacky critical interpretation greeted these Dylan songs as autobiographical.
And while this is no time for Mr. Dylan to write his own epitaph, still, he has done it: 'Some people seem to fade away but then when they are truly gone, it's like they didn't fade away at all.'"
