The love of popularity seems little else than the love of being beloved; and is only blamable when a person aims at the affections of a people by means in appearance honest, but in the end pernicious and destructive.

William Shenstone (1714-1763) English poet
“On Politics,” Men & Manners, ed. Havelock Ellis (1927)
