    —Laurence Steinberg (20th century)

    “... criticism ... makes very little dent upon me, unless I think there is some real justification and something should be done.”
    —Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)

    “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)
