Famous quotes containing the words technical, issues and/or criticism:

    “When you see something that is technically sweet, you go ahead and do it and you argue about what to do about it only after you have had your technical success. That is the way it was with the atomic bomb.”
    —J. Robert Oppenheimer (1904–1967)

    “Cynicism formulates issues clearly, but only to dismiss them.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “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)
