Criticism Quotes

Critics deserve nothing but our pity. To be so close to art and yet to contribute absolutely nothing whatsoever towards it. It's like being a eunuch at an orgy.

interviewer: How do you respond to some of your critics? They have said a mop of tangled hair, a child's contour map of the battle of Gettysburg, cathartic disintegration, degenerate. What do you say to that?
Jackson Pollock: You forgot baked macaroni.

Everyone's a critic!
