Any fans of Agatha Christie’s famous Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot? Because if you are one of them we have some excellent news…

Agatha Christie - Hercule Poirot: The London Case is coming soon to GOG!

In this point & click detective-mystery adventure from Microids we will once again take on the role of the famous Hercule Poirot, as he joins forces with Lloyd’s of London to ensure the transportation, protection, and sale of a valuable painting of Mary Magdalene. But it wouldn’t be a detective-mystery if everything went according to plan, would it? We will find out soon enough on GOG!

And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man." ~ Polonius("Hamlet"[The Bard])

neumi5694: Which means that also Shakespeare had a certain point of view :)
(where at least in the langues I speak "telling the truth" or "staying true to something" are very different).
It's still unclear if his plays were meant as 'comedy' entertainment for the common people who wanted to see lords and ladies fall or if it was meant to be a story taken seriously. And let's not forget that he was stoned quite often and also wrote about it :P

Btw, it's a good quote, I like htat one. Not saying anything bad about it.
For us, the operative assumption is that you are a virtuous person intrinsically, and by remaining true to your basic nature, you won't betray yourself, and by extension anyone else. Old Proverb: "Virtue is its own reward." Being virtuous pleases one, and one can't put a price on that feeling of satisfaction. A great and noble lady whose reign of 70 years ended in 2022, had this philosophy: "Do your best to do the right thing." She put duty to her country and people above her own personal considerations. As for The Bard, he had his wry, witty, and droll side in the use of puns, which are always a delight.((;--))
