Or, there's the Woody Allen version of that quote:
"Those who can't do teach, those who can't 
teach, teach gym." 

I have a feeling that a good
many critics are former gym teachers.

Yesterday I read a great quote to my Art Appreciation class about
critics 
(this was of course, referring to art critics specifcally, but it can
of 
course apply across the board)...anyway, I've lost the piece of paper
the 
quote was written on but it pretty much went something like this:

"A critic is like a eunuch in a harem. He knows how it's done, he sees
it 
done every day, but he just can't do it himself."
