Famous quotes containing the words critics and/or defenders:
“With a few exceptions, the critics of childrens books are remarkably lenient souls.... Most of us assume there is something good in every child; the critics go from this to assume there is something good in every book written for a child. It is not a sound theory.”

“The nation which forgets its defenders will be itself forgotten.”
