Othello

I don't know why; it's just difficult for me to appreciate Shakespeare.
Anyway, let tragedy be tragedy, life be life.

"She loved me for the dangers I had passed,
And I loved her that she did pity them." --Othello

"But words are words. I never yet did hear
That the bruised heart was pierced through the ear." --Brabanzio

"She has deceived her father, and may thee." --Brabanzio

"It's sillness to live when to live is torment; and then have
we a prescription to die when death is our physician." --Roderigo

"For I am nothing if not critical." --Iago

"If that the earth could teem with woman's tears.
Iachdrop she falls would prove a crocodile." --Othello

"Then must you speak
Of one that loved not wisely but too well,
Of one not easily jealous but, being wrought,
Perplexed in the extreme; of one whose hand
Like the base Indian, threw a pearl away
Richer than all his tribe; of one whose subdued eyes,
Albeit unused to the melting mood,
Drops tears as fast as the Arabian trees
Their medicinable gum" --Othello
