paint the silence
Publishers shouldn’t publish crap, and they shouldn’t make dilettantes famous.

Joseph Roth (Paris, June 3, 1931), Joseph Roth: A Life in Letters

Or, phrased more diplomatically, the imperative of our founder, William Warder Norton: “publish books not for a single season, but for the years.”
