Does "There but for the grace of God go I." come from Shakespeare?
It's a quotation.
Update:
THANKS! I've been using this quotation for years...thought it was time I found out where it was from.

No. It's not from the Bible, either.
It's commonly attributed to John Bradford, an English Christian martyr, when he was speaking about others being led to their deaths. Of course, he did get his turn to be burned at the stake for being a Protestant.
