Othello

“O, beware, my lord, of jealousy;It is the green-ey'd monster, which doth mockThe meat it feeds on. That cuckold lives in bliss,Who, certain of his fate, loves not his wronger:But O, what damnèd minutes tells he o'erWho dotes, yet doubts, suspects, yet strongly loves!””

— William Shakespeare

“Good name in man and woman, dear my lord,Is the immediate jewel of their souls:Who steals my purse steals trash; ’tis something, nothing;’twas mine, ’tis his, and has been slave to thousands;But he that filches from me my good nameRobs me of that which not enriches him, And makes me poor indeed.””

— William Shakespeare

“But I will wear my heart upon my sleeveFor daws to peck at: I am not what I am.””

“She loved me for the dangers I had passed, And I loved her that she did pity them. This only is the witchcraft I have used.””
