"Praise or blame has but a momentary effect on the man whose love of beauty in the abstract makes him a severe critic on his own works"

- John Keats

About this Quote

This quote by John Keats speaks with the concept that an individual who is enthusiastic regarding elegance and art will be their own toughest doubter. Despite just how much appreciation or criticism they obtain from others, it will only have a temporary impact on them. This is because they are so deeply invested in their very own work and have such high requirements for themselves that they will constantly be their own toughest judge. This quote talks with the suggestion that an individual who is enthusiastic regarding art and charm will always strive to create something that is of the highest quality, as well as will certainly never ever be satisfied with anything much less than their own finest.
