Critics Argue

Famous quotes containing the words critics and/or argue:

    Some have at first for wits, then poets passed,
    Turned critics next, and proved plain fools at last.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    Few and signally blessed are those whom Jupiter has destined to be cabbage-planters. For they’ve always one foot on the ground and the other not far from it. Anyone is welcome to argue about felicity and supreme happiness. But the man who plants cabbages I now positively declare to be the happiest of mortals.
    François Rabelais (c. 1494–1553)
