If it's taught well, art really is important to kids early on. It helps children develop language and allows them to see themselves in a way that isn't right or wrong, because if they draw an animal with five legs instead of four, nobody's criticizing them for it.

The traits the word 'childish' addresses are seen so often in adults that we should abolish this age-discriminatory word when it comes to criticizing behavior associated with irresponsibility and irrational thinking.

I wrote several articles criticizing psychoanalysis, but the analysts weren't listening to my objections. So I finally quit after practicing it for six years.

An Op-Ed by a Republican criticizing the Democrats, or vice versa, is easy to come by and not that interesting. But a Democrat who takes issue with his or her party, or a Republican who does that, is more valuable.

I've seen fathers criticizing their sons the moment a game's over. Not my dad. It doesn't matter if I threw an interception or a Hail Mary, he always says, 'Good job, son, I'm proud of you.' Then he shakes my hand and gives me a hug. Every time.

You are always going to have people criticizing, in one way or another, for their own personal reason.

Where most politicians would have abandoned a supporter like Jeremiah Wright and the community he served, Obama, while strongly criticizing him, did not throw his friend overboard.

You know what Bill Cosby did wrong? He started criticizing young black men.

If you're criticizing Israel, but you're doing it in a way that implies that the Jewish people in America have a dual loyalty, that's anti-Semitism. It's more than just criticizing Israeli policy.

Criticizing Fox News has nothing to do with criticizing the press. Fox News is not a news organization. It is the de facto leader of the GOP, and it is long past time that it is treated as such by the media, elected officials and the public.

I'm always criticizing and only see the mistakes.

I have nothing but love for the Philly fans, even the ones who were highly criticizing me or opinionated in any way.

There's always a reaction based on fear. People assume if you're criticizing a decision to go to war, then you're saying something against the soldiers-which is not the case.

We are the greatest experts in the world in criticizing our country, but no one loves his country more than the Israelis. No one.

There's a certain missing feeling, a void out there that I'm more than happy to fill. Without criticizing what's out there now, I'm just going to do El DeBarge.

Very often the Group actor is a critic when he's acting and an actor when he's criticizing.

Elia Kazan

Sadly, because of the enormous gap between rich and poor, some mothers can afford helpers, but many can't. Those who can would be kinder to refrain from criticizing other women.

Erica Jong

The criticism is what I expect, honestly, because I'm criticizing myself every day when I come in here and watch that film. I'm trying to get better.

I have a lot of anxiety about the red carpet. As a woman, it's uncomfortable to be in a position in which people are judging you, looking at what you're wearing, and criticizing you - not necessarily in a negative way.

If you do this, you're going to have some heartaches from it. You're going to have people yelling at you or maybe screaming at you or criticizing you, but I think it's the best way to sell a superior chicken.

Frank Perdue

I can't point to my work and say, 'This is my work.' My work lives in me, so when people criticize my work, they're also criticizing me. It's really hard to sort of divorce that sensitivity.

Frankie J. Alvarez

In criticizing an ideology, one cannot be racist, hateful, or bigoted. These descriptors apply to positions held against people and not ideologies.

Gad Saad

I am not criticizing investing in the stock market; I am an investor.

Grace Napolitano

Bad Religion has never been about criticizing people who are Christian. But we've always been about pointing out the irony and contradictions in Christian theology and the more extreme versions of Christians that seek to challenge modern secularism.

Greg Graffin

I feel strange when I get applauded by people in power... because it's obvious that it's them I'm criticizing, but they can't show that in front of the cameras. It's quite funny sometimes.

Greta Thunburg

When you're so out there in the public eye, people are constantly criticizing every aspect about you.

Gwyneth Paltrow

From the very first, my countrymen have followed my literary career, now criticizing, now praising my work, but hardly ever letting a single word be buried in indifference.

Halldor Laxness

When I talk about places like Saudi Arabia or Israel or even now with Venezuela, I'm not criticizing the people. I'm not criticizing their faith. I'm not criticizing their way of life.

Ilhan Omar

I think as men begin to see things that address them, they will feel that they can relate. They can't relate to 'Basketball Wives,' 'Housewives of Atlanta.' I am not judging or criticizing those shows at all; what I am saying is the perspective is not necessarily the male perspective. 'Iyanla: Fix My Life' is inclusive of everyone.

Iyanla Vanzant

I'd read things, like people criticizing me. But no one likes to read stuff about that, and probably the main thing that was getting to me was me mum's illness.

Jack Osbourne

The pleasure we feel in criticizing robs us from being moved by very beautiful things.

Jean de la Bruyere

Criticism is fine and conversation is fine, but the person who's criticizing should know what they're saying and whom they're criticizing.

Jennifer Egan

I will tell you what I can't abide - and I think the Internet has really created a space for it - women criticizing other women and mothers criticizing other mothers.

Jennifer Garner

As a musician, I have always refrained from criticizing another artist.

Jill Sobule

If you are against yourself, you will never reach your highest potential. And when you criticize yourself, you're criticizing God.

Joel Osteen

I saw how the regulation I called for made things worse, didn't help consumers and simple competition was better. And I started praising business and occasionally criticizing regulation.

John Stossel

I don't happen to subscribe to the notion that everybody who criticizes Tom Daschle is criticizing Tim Johnson. I think that's a bit of a stretch.

John Thune

I think the media needs a little criticizing now, as it did in the '80s, don't you?

I think I'm going to refrain from criticizing Apple too much. I mean, that's been a pretty great company.

I wish America would stop judging and criticizing teens and instead, try to understand the battles they have to fight every day.

Laurie Halse Anderson

Just after I entered my teens I suddenly entertained an insatiable enthusiasm for the delightful habit of criticizing others.

Loretta Young

Politicians are fond of criticizing others.

Martin Winterkorn

There are times when the criticism is something you deserve as a quarterback, and there are times when the people doing the criticizing don't know what they're talking about.

Matt Cassel

If an adult is constantly criticizing how other people look, the girl will have a more critical voice about herself and others.

Megan Shull

President Obama should heed the advice of many of his own Democratic colleagues who have called the attacks 'nauseating' and 'unfair' and stay clear of criticizing Romney for his tenure at Bain Capital.

Mercedes Schlapp

First of all, the world criticizes American foreign policy because Americans criticize American foreign policy. We shouldn't be surprised about that. Criticizing government is a God-given right - at least in democracies.

Michael Mandelbaum

I've often been accused of spending more time and energy criticizing my fellow Democrats than criticizing Republicans.

Mickey Kaus

I am criticizing a culture that has sold the big lie that 'Mom doesn't matter.'

Mike Pence

Personally criticizing a member of my staff hardly seemed like the way to negotiate a deal.

Mitch McConnell

Some forms of veil are justified by the idea that you're not tempting men. Well how about men just behaving and keeping their hands to yourselves? How about, instead of criticizing how I dress, respecting me and my right to the public space?
