Prejudice and the Black Sheep of the Flock

PREJUDICE answers Shakespeare’s description of jealousy: “A ghastly green-eyed monster which doth make the meat it feeds on.” Do the best we can, it will still live and thrive. But if there is one black or deformed sheep in the flock, passing by all the rest, that one will be held up as a sample of the whole. What shall be done with these crooked disciples? This is a difficult question; but prejudice, which loves to feed on carrion, would still live, though it could find none.
