“Don't criticize me while I criticize other people. ”

“It’s easy to criticize from the stands. What’s hard…is doing something.It’s not just that people like to criticize other people, it’s that they like to criticize other people when they haven’t achieved much themselves.”

“I am my own biggest critic. Before anyone else has criticized me, I have already criticized myself. But for the rest of my life, I am going to be with me and I don't want to spend my life with someone who is always critical. So I am going to stop being my own critic. It's high time that I accept all the great things about me.”

“I've had trouble with criticism, I guess. It's hard to know what role criticism plays in either encouraging poets or in getting other people to read them.”

“A critic is a legless man who teaches other people to run”

“If you are your worst critic, don't be angry if others try to claim the title.”
