PEMBROKE: And oftentimes excusing of a fault
Doth make the fault the worse by th’ excuse,
As patches set upon a little breach
Discredit more in hiding of the fault
Than did the fault before it was so patched.

William Shakespeare (1564–1616) English dramatist and poet

King John, Act 4, sc. 2, l. 30ff (4.2.30-34) (1596)
