Critics

Famous quotes containing the word critics:

—Alice Walker (b. 1944)

“With a few exceptions, the critics of children’s books are remarkably lenient souls.... Most of us assume there is something good in every child; the critics go from this to assume there is something good in every book written for a child. It is not a sound theory.”
—Katharine S. White (1892–1977)

“When the critics come around it’s always too late.”
