Famous quotes containing the words public, perception and/or criticism:
“Consider any individual at any period of his life, and you will always find him preoccupied with fresh plans to increase his comfort.

—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
“Genius ... is the capacity to see ten things where the ordinary man sees one, and where the man of talent sees two or three, plus the ability to register that multiple perception in the material of his art.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
“In criticism I will be bold, and as sternly, absolutely just with friend and foe. From this purpose nothing shall turn me.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
