The quote is not "hell hath no fury, yada, yada, etc...."
The correct quote is from a play called "The Mourning Bride" by
William Congreve, 1670-1729. And it runs something like this:ZARA: "Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned,
Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned."The complete quote you mentioned features in the Tom Stoppard
play "The Real Inspector Hound", but it too is an incorrect
translation of the above quote.Posted by Cassandra on April 07, 1997 at 04:39:22
