  1. A quotation from Richard Steele

    It’s a particular Observation I have always made, That of all Mortals, a Critick is the silliest; for by inuring himself to examine all Things, whether they are of Consequence or not, he never looks upon any Thing but with a Design of passing Sentence upon it; by which Means, he is never a Companion, but always a Censor. This makes him earnest upon Trifles; and dispute on the most indifferent Occasions with vehemence.

    Richard Steele (1672-1729) Anglo-Irish writer, journalist, playwright, politician
    Essay (1709-07-14), The Tatler, No. 29
