Famous quotes containing the words feminist, literary and/or critics:

    “With a new familiarity and a flesh-creeping “homeliness” entirely of this unreal, materialistic world, where all “sentiment” is coarsely manufactured and advertised in colossal sickly captions, disguised for the sweet tooth of a monstrous baby called “the Public,” the family as it is, broken up on all hands by the agency of feminist and economic propaganda, reconstitutes itself in the image of the state.”
    —Percy Wyndham Lewis (1882–1957)

    “Much of the wisdom of the world is not wisdom, and the most illuminated class of men are no doubt superior to literary fame, and are not writers.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “When the critics come around it’s always too late.”
    —Sidney, Sir Nolan (1917–1992)
