He speaks! I came here to post what Roger already has, so I won't make another link. It's a fascinating and characteristically inscrutable new interview, illustrated with some great photos I'd never seen before (and some I had...). On one hand Dylan says some of his songs are "Homeric in value." On the other, he indicates that--not being an "academic"--he really has no "opinion" on the quality of his work.
He doesn't opine on Morrissey either, but I can think of several lyricists I'd rank higher myself...
