Famous quotes containing the words plots and/or involving:
“O opportunity! thy guilt is great,
Tis thou that executst the traitors treason;
Thou setst the wolf where he the lamb may get;
Whoever plots the sin, thou pointst the season;
Tis thou that spurnst at right, at law, at reason;
And in thy shady cell, where none may spy him,
Sits Sin to seize the souls that wander by him.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
