Shakespeare is Often Misquoted

Came across this article about misquotes of Shakespeare.

http://listverse.com/2008/09/15/top-10-shakespeare-misquotes/

Item 4 shocked me that it was the most misquoted of all Shakespeare lines.

4. From: “Hamlet”Misquote: “Methinks the lady doth protest too much”
Actual Quote: “The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

”This is another of the “same meaning” quotes. This is probably one of the most commonly heard misquotes of Shakespeare.



Shakespeare is misquoted more than Manford Mann's Earth Band!!

Interesting read.

I knew the quote was wrong..."protesteth" seemed out of line, too.
