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)

    ‘Tis base to plead the unhappy prisoner’s cause,
    With eloquence that’s bought.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    I would forget it fain,
    But O, it presses to my memory
    Like damnèd guilty deeds to sinners’ minds.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
