I hope every thing is going smoothly and under control
Followings are some quotes about critics , hopefully to be of your concern

Michel Montainge says
No Two men ever judged alike of the same thing , it is impossible to find two opinions exactly similar , not only in different men but in the same men at different times

Mignon Mclaughlin says
A critic can only review the book he has read , not the one which the writer wrote

George Gordon says
Seek roses in December , ice in June
Hope constancy in wind , or corn in chaff
Believe a woman or an epitaph
Or any other thing that’s false , before you trust in critics

Mel Brooke says
Critics can’t even make music by rubbing their back legs together

John Osborn says
Asking a working writer what he thinks about critics is like asking a lamppost what it feels about dogs

Jean Cocteaau says
Listen carefully to first criticisms made of your work – Note just what it is about your work that true critics don’t like , then cultivate it . That’s the only part of your work that’s not individual or praiseworthy in their opinion

Jean Cocteaau also says
Pay no attention to what the critics with ill intention say : A stature has never been erected in honor of a true or false critic


Stay well with all God blessings
