“Those who write ill, and they who ne'er durst write,Turn critics out of mere revenge and spite.”
“But in those whom no necessity forces to turn Author, who merely write for fame, and have full leisure to polish their compositions, faults are impardonable, and merit the sharpest arrows of criticism.”
“A person who can write a long letter with ease, cannot write ill.”
“Let those who can write to write and bring more knowldge and understading to the society. And let those who can read to read out loud for every ear to hear.”
“Those who write clearly have readers, those who write obscurely have commentators.”
“I write out of revenge.”
