Bob Dylan: Plagiarism Critics Are "Wussies and Pussies"
I'm siding with Bob on this one. A lot of similarity between phrases is likely to just be due to chance since if you write enough (as Bob Dylan does) then sooner or later there's going to be a match made by one of those computer programs that supposedly detect plagiarism. Also quoting from other works is legitimate. I think that's what they call literary allusion.
