Penny/criticism

Famous quotes containing the words penny and/or criticism:

“I had not given a penny for a song
Did not the poet sing it with such airs
That one believed he had a sword upstairs;
Yet would be now, could I but have my wish,
Colder and dumber and deafer than a fish.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“... criticism ... makes very little dent upon me, unless I think there is some real justification and something should be done.”
