"Power is action; the electoral principle is discussion. No political action is possible when discussion is permanentl…" — Honore de Balzac

The critic has to educate the public; the artist has to educate the critic.

To avoid criticism do nothing, say nothing, be nothing

Fear not those who argue but those who dodge

It is much easier to be critical than correct

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect

Some people are always grumbling because roses have thorns; I am thankful that thorns have roses
