Life of Samuel Johnson (1791), Vol I
Context: Hume, and other sceptical innovators, are vain men, and will gratify themselves at any expence. Truth will not afford sufficient food to their vanity; so they have betaken themselves to errour.

If I could have allowed myself to gratify my vanity at the expence of truth, what fame might I have acquired.
