This one’s featured in the all-time crowd favorite, “Hamlet.” “Methinks the lady doth protest too much,” is something people say when they think someone is denying an accusation too strongly. And for all their denials, they just look even more guilty. It’s spoken as though this were something Hamlet was saying to his mother Queen Gertrude, but in fact it’s said by another character altogether.
