A defence in the Inquisition is of little use to the prisoner, for a suspicion only is deemed sufficient cause of condemnation, and the greater his wealth the greater his danger.
John Foxe
A man should be just cultured enough to be able to look with suspicion upon culture at first, not second hand.
Samuel Butler
A man who graduated high in his class at Yale Law School and made partnership in a top law firm would be celebrated. A man who invested wisely would be admired, but a woman who accomplishes this is treated with suspicion.
Barbra Streisand
After being Washington's aide for four years and becoming the hero of Yorktown, Hamilton was viewed with a great deal of suspicion because of his association with Tories.
Ron Chernow
An engaged woman is always more agreeable than a disengaged. She is satisfied with herself. Her cares are over, and she feels that she may exert all her powers of pleasing without suspicion. All is safe with a lady engaged; no harm can be done.
Jane Austen
Anybody who had come up with a new concept would have been under suspicion for being out of step with the tradition or out of step with the teachings of the church.
John Templeton
Anyone who draws attention to himself as an individual, is viewed with suspicion. We acquired this tendency, of course, from America, and we must resist it: levelling, and imitation of what others are already doing.
Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau
As I read, my suspicion that Jesus might really be the Messiah was confirmed.
Jay Alan Sekulow
Be assured, fellow citizens, that in a democracy it is the laws that guard the person of the citizen and the constitution of the state, whereas the despot and the oligarch find their protection in suspicion and in armed guards.
Aeschines
Caesar's wife must be above suspicion.
Julius Caesar
Caesar's wife should be above suspicion.
John Langhorne
Dante himself is open to the suspicion of partiality: it is said, not without apparent ground, that he puts into hell all the enemies of the political cause, which, in his eyes, was that of Italy and God.
Goldwin Smith
Democracy is the recurrent suspicion that more than half of the people are right more than half of the time.
E. B. White
From depicting the past, so goes the suspicion, it is a short step to glorifying the past.
Lion Feuchtwanger
Getting talked about is one of the penalties for being pretty, while being above suspicion is about the only compensation for being homely.
Kin Hubbard
I always regarded people who want fame with a lot of suspicion. Unless you have a product to sell, I don't know why anyone would want to be famous. I can't imagine what need that would fill.
Jessica Cutler
I am looked upon with suspicion. I am on the "other side."
Harry Ellis Dickson
I don't know how to defend myself: surprised innocence cannot imagine being under suspicion.
Pierre Corneille
I guess I had a suspicion of it my entire life without knowing exactly what it was - knowing that there was something different about me, which I attributed to being an artist. At 11 or 12 I started sort of clarifying for myself. It took a while.
Randy Harrison
I have a sneaking suspicion that all religions lead to the same place, a very unified place.
