Quotations On Critics And Criticism

A good writer is not necessarily a good book critic. No more so than a good drunk is automatically a good bartender.
-- Jim Bishop

Satire is often the reflection of a kind of moral nausea.
-- Crand Briton

Criticism is often not a science; it is a craft, requiring more good health than wit, more hard work than talent, more habit than native genius. In the hands of a man who has read widely but lacks judgment, applied to certain subjects it can corrupt both its readers and the writer himself.
-- Jean De La Bruyère
1645-1696, French Classical Writer

Critics! Those cut-throat bandits in the paths of fame.
-- Robert Burns
1759-1796, Scottish Poet

Writing prejudicial, off-putting reviews is a precise exercise in applied black magic. The reviewer can draw free-floating disagreeable associations to a book by implying that the book is completely unimportant without saying exactly why, and carefully avoiding any clear images that could capture the reader's full attention.
-- William S. Burroughs
1914-1997, American Writer

Self-laudation abounds among the unpolished, but nothing can stamp a man more sharply as ill-bred.
-- Charles Buxton
1823-1871, British Author

The rule in carving holds good as to criticism; never cut with a knife what you can cut with a spoon.
-- Charles Buxton
1823-1871, British Author

A man must serve his time to every trade save censure -- critics all are ready made.
-- Lord Byron
1788-1824, British Poet
