  1. A quotation from Shakespeare

    VIOLA: I hate ingratitude more in a man
       Than lying, vainness, babbling drunkenness,
       Or any taint of vice whose strong corruption
       Inhabits our frail blood.

    William Shakespeare (1564–1616) English dramatist and poet
    Twelfth Night, Act 3, sc. 4, l. 372ff (3.4.372–375) (1601)
