William Hazlitt Quotes:
Ocupation: Writer
Life: April 10, 1778 - September 18, 1830
Birthday: April 10
Death: September 18
We have more faith in a well-written romance while we are reading it than in common history. The vividness of the representations in the one case more than counterbalances the mere knowledge of the truth of facts in the other.
