Famous quotes containing the word criticism:

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

    “The critic lives at second hand. He writes about. The poem, the novel, or the play must be given to him; criticism exists by the grace of other men’s genius. By virtue of style, criticism can itself become literature. But usually this occurs only when the writer is acting as critic of his own work or as outrider to his own poetics, when the criticism of Coleridge is work in progress or that of T.S. Eliot propaganda.”
    —George Steiner (b. 1929)

    “To be just, that is to say, to justify its existence, criticism should be partial, passionate and political, that is to say, written from an exclusive point of view, but a point of view that opens up the widest horizons.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
