Famous quotes containing the words critical and/or reception:

    An art whose medium is language will always show a high degree of critical creativeness, for speech is itself a critique of life: it names, it characterizes, it passes judgment, in that it creates.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
