Higher Criticism

Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or criticism:

    The life of man is the true romance, which when it is valiantly conducted will yield the imagination a higher joy than any fiction.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    When you overpay small people you frighten them. They know that their merits or activities entitle them to no such sums as they are receiving. As a result their boss soars out of economic into magic significance. He becomes a source of blessings rather than wages. Criticism is sacrilege, doubt is heresy.
    Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
