Famous quotes containing the words rate and/or applied:

“All of us failed to match our dreams of perfection. So I rate us on the basis of our splendid failure to do the impossible.”

“Criticism is often not a science; it is a craft, requiring more good health than wit, more hard work than talent, more habit than native genius. In the hands of a man who has read widely but lacks judgment, applied to certain subjects it can corrupt both its readers and the writer himself.”
