Bob Dylan reckons the art and literature worlds are "honest" and "upfront". Well, when compared to the music industry. Speaking about the industry that made him famous, Dylan told the Times: "The music world's a made-up bunch of hypocritical rubbish. I know that the book people are a whole lot saner. And the art world? From the small steps I've taken in it, I'd say, yeah, the people are honest, upfront and deliver what they say. Basically, they are who they say they are. They don't pretend. And having been in the music world most of my life I can tell you it's not that way. Let's just say it's less dignified".
