Famous quotes containing the words judge, advocate and/or general:

    Children begin by loving their parents. After a time they judge them. Rarely, if ever, do they forgive them.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    I am not much an advocate for traveling, and I observe that men run away to other countries, because they are not good in their own, and run back to their own, because they pass for nothing in the new places.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    All the critics who could not make their reputations by discovering you are hoping to make them by predicting hopefully your approaching impotence, failure and general drying up of natural juices. Not a one will wish you luck or hope that you will keep on writing unless you have political affiliations in which case these will rally around and speak of you and Homer, Balzac, Zola and Link Steffens.
    Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
