Critical Sample

Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or sample:

“Somewhere it is written that parents who are critical of other people’s children and publicly admit they can do better are asking for it.”

“The present war having so long cut off all communication with Great-Britain, we are not able to make a fair estimate of the state of science in that country. The spirit in which she wages war is the only sample before our eyes, and that does not seem the legitimate offspring either of science or of civilization.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
