"Quinlan Terry is the single most distinguished and prolific architect at work in the Classical tradition in either Britain or the United States of America.

Famous quotes containing the words positive and/or criticism:

    Success goes thus invariably with a certain plus or positive power: an ounce of power must balance an ounce of weight.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    People try so hard to believe in leaders now, pitifully hard. But we no sooner get a popular reformer or politician or soldier or writer or philosopher—a Roosevelt, a Tolstoy, a Wood, a Shaw, a Nietzsche, than the cross-currents of criticism wash him away. My Lord, no man can stand prominence these days. It’s the surest path to obscurity. People get sick of hearing the same name over and over.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
