Person viewing humans pessimistically (5)

I believe the answer is:

cynic

(Other definitions for cynic that I've seen before include "Fault-finder" , "One with a low view of human nature" , "Sort of Greek philosopher" , "One thinking the worst" , "One who questions the worth of anything" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
