Robert Wilson Lynd Quotes
On the whole, however, the critic is far less of a professional faultfinder than is sometimes imagined. He is first of all a virtue-finder, a singer of praise.

None of the best critics have been men of destructive minds. They are like gardeners whose business is more with the flowers than with the weeds.
