D.H. Lawrence Quotes

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 Analysing Of Books In An Imitation-botanical Fashion, Is Mere Impertinence And Mostly Dull Jargon.
