Solomon/criticism

Famous quotes containing the words solomon and/or criticism:

    Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth! For your love is better than wine.
    Bible: Hebrew, Song of Solomon 1:2.

    The aim of all commentary on art now should be to make works of art—and, by analogy, our own experience—more, rather than less, real to us. The function of criticism should be to show how it is what it is, even that it is what it is, rather than to show what it means.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
