Samuel Butler (poet) Quote

He that complies against his will.
Is of his own opinion still.


Canto III, line 547. Sometimes misreported as "is convinced" instead of "complies"; reported in Paul F. Boller, Jr., and John George, They Never Said It: A Book of Fake Quotes, Misquotes, & Misleading Attributions (1989), p. 11 - Hudibras Part III (1678)


He that complies against his will. Is of his own opinion still.

He that complies against his will. Is of his own opinion still.

He that complies against his will. Is of his own opinion still.

He that complies against his will. Is of his own opinion still.
