critical

«It is especially important to encourage unorthodox thinking when the situation is critical: At such moments every new word and fresh thought is more precious than gold. Indeed, people must not be deprived of the right to think their own thoughts.»
«It's not that the creative act and the critical act are simultaneous. It's more like you blurt something out and then analyze it.»
«It is easier to be critical than correct.»
«Politics can be relatively fair in the breathing spaces of history; at its critical turning points there is no other rule possible than the old one, that the end justifies the means.»
«It isn't making mistakes that's critical; it's correcting them and getting on with the principal task.»

«One does nothing who tries to console a despondent person with word. A friend is one who aids with deeds at a critical time when deeds are called for.»
«I love my dad, although I'm definitely critical of him sometimes, like when his pants are too tight. ... But I love him so much and I try to be really supportive of him.»
«Literary criticism can be no more than a reasoned account of the feeling produced upon the critic by the book he is criticizing. Criticism can never be a science: it is, in the first place, much too personal, and in the second, it is concerned with values that science ignores. The touchstone is emotion, not reason. We judge a work of art by its effect on our sincere and vital emotion, and nothing else. All the critical twiddle-twaddle about style and form, all this pseudoscientific classifying and analyzing of books in an imitation-botanical fashion, is mere impertinence and mostly dull jargon.»
«I think I'm more difficult than critical.»
«One of the illusions of life is that the present hour is not the critical, decisive hour. Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. No man has learned anything rightly, until he knows that every day is Doomsday.»
