Famous quotes containing the words literary critics, feminist, literary and/or critics:

    I have misplaced the Van Allen belt
    the sewers and the drainage,
    the urban renewal and the suburban centers.
    I have forgotten the names of the literary critics.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    If the feminist program goes to pieces on the arrival of the first baby, it’s false and useless.
    Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)

    In literary circles, the men of trust and consideration, bookmakers, editors, university deans and professors, bishops, too, were by no means men of the largest literary talent, but usually of a low and ordinary intellectuality, with a sort of mercantile activity and working talent. Indifferent hacks and mediocrities tower, by pushing their forces to a lucrative point, or by working power, over multitudes of superior men, in Old as in New England.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    When the critics come around it’s always too late.
    Sidney, Sir Nolan (1917–1992)
