Vanity, Egotism, A Strong Sense Of Their Own Sufficiency, Form Another Accusation Against Men Of Genius; But The Complexion Of Self-Praise Must Alter With The Occasion; For The Simplicity Of Truth May Appear Vanity, And The Consciousness Of Superiority Seem Envy--To Mediocrity. It Is We Who Do Nothing, And Cannot Even Imagine Anything To Be Done, Who Are So Much Displeased With Self-Lauding, Self-Love, Self-Independence, Self-Admiration, Which With The Man Of Genius May Often Be Nothing But An Ostensible Modification Of The Passion Of Glory.

Aaron Hill (10 February 1685 – 8 February 1750) was an English dramatist and miscellaneous writer. The son of a country gentleman of Wiltshire, Hill was educated at Westminster School, and afterwards travelled in the East. He was the author of 17 plays, some of them, such as his versions of Voltaire's Zaire andMérope, being adaptations. He also wrote poetry, which is of variable quality. Having written some satiric lines on Alexander Pope, he received in return a mention in The Dunciad, which led to a controversy between the two writers. Afterwards a reconciliation took place. He was a friend and correspondent of Samuel Richardson, whose Pamela he highly praised. In addition to his literary pursuits Hill was involved in many commercial schemes, usually unsuccessful.
