Write me as one that loves his fellow men.

Leigh Hunt

About This Quote

This quote needs no introduction—at least for now. We're working on adding more context soon.

Interpretation

The line asks to be remembered—or represented in writing—as someone defined by humane feeling rather than by faction, achievement, or notoriety. “Write me” implies posterity, biography, or epitaph: the speaker’s preferred legacy is simple moral character, grounded in affection for “his fellow men.” In Hunt’s case (as a writer often embroiled in literary and political quarrels), the sentiment reads as a corrective to partisan or scandal-driven portraits: whatever his errors, let the record emphasize sympathy, sociability, and a broadly philanthropic temperament. The brevity gives it the force of a last request: love of humanity is presented as the most durable credential.
