Penny/criticism

Famous quotes containing the words penny and/or criticism:

    With one hand he put
    A penny in the urn of poverty,
    And with the other took a shilling out.
    Robert Pollok (1798–1827)

    I hold with the old-fashioned criticism that Browning is not really a poet, that he has all the gifts but the one needful and the pearls without the string; rather one should say raw nuggets and rough diamonds.
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
