Iago

1. “I know my price, I am worth no worse a place”

   • “strangle her in her bed, even the bed she hath contaminated”

2. “that ‘twixt my sheet / He has done my office: I know not if’t be true”

   • “Till I am evened with him, wife for wife”

3. “The Moor already changes with my poison”

   • “From this time forth I never will speak word”
   • O, you are well tuned now; But I’ll set down the pegs that make the music / As honest as I am – Act 2 scene 1
     • 'for daws to peck at'

4. “We have reason to cool our raging motions”

   • “Come, be a man” – “If thou wilt needs damn thyself, do it a more delicate way than drowning.
     • I am not what I am
   • O, you are well tuned now; But I’ll set down the pegs that make the music / As honest as I am – Act 2 scene 1
     • I know, Iago / thy honesty and love doth mince this matter /
       • Divinity of hell / when devils will the blackest sins put on / they do suggest at first with heavenly shows
       • That shall enmesh them all

5. “I had rather have this tongue out from my mouth / Than it should do offence to Michael Cassio / Yet I persuade myself, to speak the truth”

   • “You rise to play and go to bed to work”
   • I look down towards his feet – but that’s a fable / if that thou best a devil, I cannot kill thee
