Plead Guilty

Famous quotes containing the words plead guilty, plead and/or guilty:

    Carlyle must undoubtedly plead guilty to the charge of mannerism. He not only has his vein, but his peculiar manner of working it. He has a style which can be imitated, and sometimes is an imitator of himself.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Thou art indeed just, Lord, if I contend
    With thee; but, sir, so what I plead is just.
    Why do sinners’ ways prosper? and why must
    Disappointment all I endeavour end?
    Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)

    A good person will feel guilty even before a dog.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
