William Hazlitt

William Hazlitt
Image

The admiration of power in others is as common to man as the love of it in himself the one makes him a tyrant, the other a slave.
William Hazlitt
Image
The player envies only the player, the poet envies only the poet.
William Hazlitt
Image
If a person has no delicacy, he has you in his power.
William Hazlitt
Image
