Moore, Marianne. "Literature the noblest of the arts". In : The Dial ; no 79 (Oct. 1925). [Review of The collected essays and papers of George Saintsbury, 1875-1920.]
"The contributor who is not allowed to contribute", says Mr. Saintsbury, "is fierce as a matter of course ; but not less fierce is the contributor who thinks himself too much edited, and the contributor who imperatively insists that his article on Chinese metaphysics shall go in at once, and the contributor who, being an excellent hand at the currency, wants to be allowed to write on dancing : and, in short, as the Shepherd says, all contributors."
