Downbeat Magazine Readers

Famous quotes containing the words magazine and/or readers:

    In regard to women, as in many other respects, there was a good deal of humbug about ... chivalry.
    O. L., U.S. women’s magazine contributor. The Woman’s Magazine, pp. 265-6 (January 1888)

    There is no luck in literary reputation. They who make up the final verdict upon every book are not the partial and noisy readers of the hour when it appears; but a court as of angels, a public not to be bribed, not to be entreated, and not to be overawed, decides upon every man’s title to fame. Only those books come down which deserve to last.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
