CRITICISM

 
Keep a strict eye on eulogistic and dyslogistic adjectives – they should diagnose (not merely blame) and distinguish (not merely praise).

  -- C. S. Lewis


CYNICISM

Cynicism is a detour from the road of life, a sidetrack that opens onto the highway of nihilism. In order to avoid it, we must act through the ideals that are the core of our life.

-- Michael Meade, interviewed in The Sun
