This is the most uneasing quotes that I've ever heard. Iago is truly a horrid character. I think he is truly a serpent of which every "bad guy" in today's world strives to be. He twists the truth, to merrit his own divices. He makes a mockery of all that is good. He unmoral above all others in English literature. He is a... villian...

Iago isn't evil without Othello's temptation towards obsessive and jealous rumination. The tragedy of the play occurs within Othello's mind, not within Iago's. Iago is simply perceptive, and his motivations reflect Othellos. He is jealous, ambitious and obsessive, just like Othello.

In general, I find it worhless to try to tie a particular political figure to this kind of character. People like Iago are a lot closer to us, they can play our most trusted friends or lovers. They can be our sons, our parentes. The people we think that share our views on life, politics, religion and whatnot. Iago is the devil right beside you, whispering what you whant to hear, Only to use you, or ruin you, or all those things at once.

Quotations- How am I then a villain? When this advice is free and I give a probal to thinking and indeed the course to win the Moor again? His soul is so enfettered to Desdemona’s love that she may make, unmake do what she list even as her appetites shall play the God with his weak function. How am I then a villain? That counsels Cassio to this parallel directly to his good? Divinity of Hell, when devils will their blackest sins put on they do suggest at first with heavenly shows. As I do now: for whiles this honest fool plies Desdemona to repair his fortunes, and she for him pleads strongly to the Moor. I’ll pour this pestilence into his ear that she repeals him for her body’s lust, and by how much she strives to do him good, she shall undo her credit with the Moor. So will I turn her virtue into pitch and out of her own goodness make the net, that shall enmesh them all.

He does it because Cassio got promoted instead of him and because he thought Othello cucked him. There's also some racist elements to his character, but those mostly stem from his disgust towards the Moor since he was serving with him in battle and probably loved him as a friend, but then Othello promoted Cassio and all of that evaporated.
@westonenzo9918

@@zlodrim9284 This. Iago is a SOCIOPATH, NOT a psychopath. There's a huge difference. One is born and the other is made. Iago became a sociopath partly because of what he had to endure as a military man, and partly because of how Othello completely undermined him. I believe that Othello undermining him was the final straw on the camel's back. He is NOT inherently evil. That would make him to be too boring and one-dimensional of a character. He is someone who has been turned due to terrible circumstance. His racism is definitely an issue, and probably something that Shakespeare wanted to bring light to. It wasn't a problem to Iago, nor even a thought, until he was undermined and over-looked by Othello. His subconscious mind came to light... and all the pain and anguish ALONG with the deep-rooted racism came to light within his conscious mind once he was overtly hurt by Othello's decision to promote Cassio instead of him. He doesn't think with logic, but rather a need to hurt others, and a, newly-founded, lack of care for the emotional health of others. He is intelligent, however his intelligence does not allow him to, after all, escape his own demise. Iago is actually a very near-sighted person, completely burning with contempt. He is, however, very relatable and a very entertaining character to watch BECAUSE of how close he is to being human.

I can’t stand when so many teachers and general fans of Shakespeare think of Iago as the ultimate villain, when basically he is just bringing out the evil & weakness within Othello the true villain of the story. If Othello was based on a true case, let us say today a man assumes his wife has been unfaithful even based on some evidence most people especially today would think of killing a spouse for adultery would be ethically wrong and that only barbaric draconian religious fanatics or possessive control freaks with no self control would do something so ethically wrong especially with flimsy evidence such as with Othello.Also do not forget that Iago does warn Othello of Jealousy which is his undoing which leads him to murder. Iago is a mere scapegoat for Othello. Trust me if Othello was a white man he would be seen as a villain, many see him as a tragic victim because of his race,( Moor actually alludes to Othello actually being Arab Muslim from Morocco) meanwhile he kills a woman his wife who represents innocence & naivety in the play which is her weakness which leads to her downfall, just as Othello does not heed the advice of Iago so to does Desdemona fail to heed the advice of Iago’s wife and her caretaker on not being so trusting and passive with Othello she warns her & in her naivity & innocence a common stereotype of womanhood falls victim to it leading to her death. Its more about the weakness & faults within men & women. Othello is the villain & has always been the villain Iago basically brings it out in him & is blamed. If someone killed another person for any reason because he was was led to believe that person had betrayed him he would still be found guilty in a court of law & be seen as a bad person. It amazes me how so many people defend Othello actually because of his race as he is always seen as a victim bo matter what terrible atrocities he commits. Desdemona marries Othello not because of his intelligence or kindness or physical attraction but because of his physical prowess hos stereotypical masculine traits as a warrior/captain & as a act of rebellion against her father for being with someone not of her kind; it backfires on her like a Shakespearian Nicole Brown & OJ Simpson. Othello is the villain not Iago

I don't get the impression that Iago envisioned Desdemona being able to persuade Othello as such. Iago's very intent was to undermine the Lady/'s Virtue, and with it, Her Credibility. And he tragically succeeded in doing so. Also, Iago's attack was not singularly targeted on Othello. I think a deeper reading reveals Iago's real target to be Desdemona ... and, through Her, the Marriage/Relationship between Her & Othello. Iagp is the jealous one here. I believe what many call his inexplicably "pointless malice" to be easily explained: Iago is a raging misogynist, and has an unhealthy, possessive Homoerotic love/lust for Othello. All else is pretense (Red Herrings, if You will). Othello's Marriage/Relationship with (his True Love for) Desdemona must be destroyed. Which means Desdemona must be destroyed. Seen through this lens, everything in the Play falls neatly into place. I like Your analysis! I like mine, too. And thanks to You, I came to be able to develop it and see the situation more clearly than I had before. Best to You, ~ TD, Boston

Oh, I wanted to clarify something here, if you will indulge me. You indicated here that you did read and comprehend my other note in which I refer to Iago as a "worm." i appreciate that. I assume you noticed that the proposed statement to the intended "target" (expressing the worm's Envy, Resentment & Fear), would, in light of my more recent comment, be directed, not at Othello, but at Desdemona herself. I assure you: That was not a shift. That was my deliberate intent all along. Again: Iago (the worm), is a raging misogynist. He is a very confused and angry individual who, missing certain parts that make a Human a real, fully evolved Human, Iago has not the ability to even begin to comprehend what it means to Love. And he knows it, which I think fuels his bitterness here, as well. The Play is a phenomenal Work of Art. Thanks for indulging me and providing me the opportunity and impetus to explore the deep issues that The Bard has presented for us ... to help us learn & grow. Best, ~ TD, Boston

A man that arrogant & violence prone, that would kill a women he supposedly loves for merely thinking that she has been unfaithful or not obedient to him was a ticking time bomb ready to explode even if Iago wasn’t in the picture. Beware the Big Green Monster beware of jealousy, villains do not usually warn people of their own weaknesses & faults. On the surface Iago is the manipulative villain but the true villain is Othello.

Any bit by Kenneth Branagh is a good bit to learn. He was in Hamlet and Henry V as well. There was another he was in with Denzel Washington and Keanu Reeves. Pretty much acts circles around then when it comes to Shakespearean acting. I forgot what it's called but, you might find something there that I can't htink of. Tom Hanks' monologue from Cast Away is good. The one where he's reciting the events of him being stranded on the island and saying how he realized he was going to die. It's not villainous but, there's emptiness in his eyes when reciting it. Othello has a decent monologue as well when recounting the events of the alleged affair(if I remember correctly) again not villainous but, packs emotion. Lennox's monologue in MacBeth after the King's body is discovered. I believe the witches have a pretty cool monologue as well.
