Famous quotes containing the words music, critics and/or editors:

    “Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you—like music to the musician or Marxism to the Communist—or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    “Decadence is a difficult word to use since it has become little more than a term of abuse applied by critics to anything they do not yet understand or which seems to differ from their moral concepts.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “The editors are committed to nothing save this: to keep common sense as fast as they can, to belabor sham as agreeably as possible, to give civilized entertainment.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
