Critics! Those cut-throat bandits in the paths of fame. (Cusack John)
You know criticism when you get into this business. You accept the bad with the good, the tabloids and the positive side of it. (Cusack John)
No ones immune now, to a world of problems. No ones exempt now, from a world of pain! (Cusack John)
They usually roll their eyes and refer to me on "The A-Team" by saying, 'Gee, you really are wacko, right?' Yet, as I've told my wife, this is easy for me to deal with because I've been ridiculed for twenty-five years by every major critic in this country. (Cusack John)

Critics want 'fresh,' ... But long-running television shows aren't built that way. When people tune into 'Will & Grace,' they don't want new actors in the roles. They don't want a new setting: They don't want to suddenly see it taking place in Miami. The freshness must be strictly internal, how we do little things. The big picture is not gonna change that much. (Cusack John)
“I expect it (criticism). I would do the same thing. My wife is the most critical. She said, 'This is ridiculous...' But you have two choices - not to do it or do it.” (Cusack John)
I learned a lot about critics, not to really take them too seriously about movies. (Cusack John)
The critics tend to forget their own answers after a while. (Cusack John)
“Some of the critics say, `Where's the gray?,' ... Forget that. A friend of mine sent me an e-mail, `It's nice to see something where things are so clean-cut, not like The Sopranos, where he's a killer, but he's a wonderful family man.'” (Cusack John)
“There is always going to be criticism but I am a strong enough person to take that.” (Cusack John)
“A critic is someone who never actually goes to the battle, yet who afterwards comes out shooting the wounded” (Cusack John)
“The average man, if he meddles with criticism at all, is a conservative critic.” (Cusack John)
If you're going to get into social criticism with absurdity and satire, you can't be politically correct when you do that. (Cusack John)
