Famous quotes containing the word criticism:

    It is from the womb of art that criticism was born.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    Good criticism is very rare and always precious.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    A friend of mine spoke of books that are dedicated like this: “To my wife, by whose helpful criticism ...” and so on. He said the dedication should really read: “To my wife. If it had not been for her continual criticism and persistent nagging doubt as to my ability, this book would have appeared in Harper’s instead of The Hardware Age.”
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
