Famous quotes containing the words bad and/or bishop:
“A bad short story or novel or poem leaves one comparatively calm because it does not exist, unless it gets a fake prestige through being mistaken for good work. It is essentially negative, it is something that has not come through. But over bad criticism one has a sense of real calamity.”
—Rebecca West (18921983)
“The armored cars of dreams, contrived to let us do so many a dangerous thing.”
—Elizabeth Bishop (19111979)
