Good choice. Imo, the best notable quote came from Iago - "He who filches from me my good name robs me not of what enriches him, but makes me poor indeed." Or something like that. Iago was a liar, cheat and wife-coveting cad.

Shows the timeless insight into various human character traits Shakespeare had, positive and negative, both with this quote, and the character chosen to speak it.

That's just beautiful. I love philosophy.

Why thank you! Shakespeare was philosophical imo, and it shows in his works. . It amazes me he got away with his pointed societal criticisms, without being thrown into a dungeon (afawk) or executed! I had to bite my figurative tongue to keep from comparing Iago to a certain well-known public figure, in my nation, but I'm fairly positive many of us can think of a few comparisons.

Thank you again, for the compliment. May you be well, well-read and philosophical! Ashay!
