“The human mind is generally far more eager to praise and dispraise than to describe and define. It wants to make every distinction a distinction of value; hence those fatal critics who can never point out the differing quality of two poets with¬ out putting them in an order of preference as if they were candidates for a prize.” — C.S. Lewis
