ep
The cease of majesty
Dies not alone; but, like a gulf, doth draw
Whats near it with it: it is a massy wheel,
Fixd on the summit of the highest mount,
To whose huge spokes ten thousand lesser things
Are mortised and adjoind; which, when it falls,
Each small annexment, petty consequence,
Attends the boisterous ruin.
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE , Hamlet, III, 3
Men in pursuit of justice must never despair.
