"Conscience does make cowards of us all" = lương tâm khiến tất cả chúng ta đều hèn nhát -> nghĩa là ai không muốn làm điều gì (có lẽ là việc sai trái) vì lương tâm không cho phép.
Ví dụ
While reading Beowulf, we dutifully (nghiêm túc) look up every word in the glossary and the grammar, but we tend to take Shakespeare’s English for granted, the more so as half of his lines are familiar quotations. “Thus conscience does make cowards of us all.” Conscience? No, thought! On the other hand, Cassius, the man who, it will be remembered, had a lean and hungry look, aroused Caesar’s distrust: “He thinks too much. Such men are dangerous.”
Conscience does make cowards of us all - the exceptions apparently (hình như là) Hannah Sweet, Nicola Collet and Mara Sherman, the ingenious (khéo léo) and exuberant (cởi mở) actors and director responsible for "A Two Woman Hamlet".
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all; And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied (ốm yếu) o'er with the pale (trắng bệch) cast of thought, And enterprises of great pith and moment With this regard their currents turn awry, And lose the name of action. - Soft you now!
