Othello Flashcards
I’m the general I don’t need to worry .I’ve done nothing wrong (shows self confidence authority dignity and calmness)
I must be found ,my parts,my title and my perfect soul shall manifest me rightly
Addressing the council
Most potent grave and reverend signiors
He saying he lacks elegance
Rude am I in my speech and little blest with the set phrase of peace
His version how he wooed Desdemona
She loved me for the dangers I have and I loved her that she did pity them
Duke is impressed by Othellos story
I think this tale would win my daughter too
Cruel sexual imagery trying to wind up D’s father
Even now very now and old black tan is tupping your white ewe
B is convinced O put a spell on D to make her fall in love
Thou hast practised on her with foul charms
The attraction is unnatural
Against all rules of nature
Why B thinks D couldn’t love O
To fall in love with what she fear’d to look on
Prophetic words to Othello. She fooled her father…
Look to her Moor ,if thou hast eyes to see , she has deceived her father and may thee
Shows how content he is with his wife now he is happy
If it were now to die , ‘twere now to be most happy
Prophetic quote about their relationship
Excellent wretch ,perdition catch my soul, but I do love thee and when I love thee not, chaos is come again
Othello refuses to believe D is unfaithful
if she be false then heaven mocks itself I’ll not believe it
My husband is a good guy not the jealous type
My noble moor is true of mind and made of no such baseness as jealous creatures are
Os trust in Iago
A man he is of honesty and trust
His life depends on Desdemona
My life upon her faith, honest Iago
Supposing O slept with his wife
I hate the moor, for t’is thought abroad that ‘twixt my sheets he’s done my office
Tells us Iago is cunning and O’s naivety compares him to animal
The Moor is of a free and open nature that thinks men honest that but seems to be and will as tenderly be led by the nose as asses are
What he plans to do to Othello
A jealousy so strong that judgement cannot cure
Going to make a fool out of Othello
Make the Moor thank me,reward me and love me for making him egregiously an ass
Othello says I know you’re going to defend your friend but you need to be honest
I know, Iago, thy honesty and love doth mince this matter ,making it light to Cassio , I love thee but never more be officer of mine
Sees Cassio speaking to D
Ha! I like not that
Iago gives friendly and honest advice
Look to your wife , observe her well with Cassio
Exploring his lack of knowledge
In Venice they do let god see the pranks they dare not show their husbands
Advice on how to kill D
Do it not with poison.Strangle her in her bed, even the bed she hath contaminated
Ironic . You feel my pain you’ve been such a help to me
O brave Iago, honest and just, thou hast such noble sense of thy friends wrong, thou teachest me
Image of jealousy being a monster that consumes a person
O beware my lord of jealousy ! It is the green eyed monster that doth mock the meat it feeds on
Shows Othello willing to kill wife
I’ll tear her all to pieces
His piece of mind , happiness and self esteem are now gone
O now forever, farewell the tranquil mind ! Farewell content!
Iagos peak moment
Now art thou my lieutenant
Emilia gives out to O
Moor, she was chaste, she loved thee, cruel moor
Just after O hit D
Is this the noble moor who out full senate call all in all sufficient ?
This the noble nature whom passion could not shake?
Whose solid virtue the shot of accident, nor dart of chance, chould neither graze nor pierce?
O telling himself what he’s done is justified
It is the cause, it is the cause
O logic
Yet she must die, else she’ll betray more men
O is going to kill her quickly
I am that cruel, am yet merciful. I would not have thee linger in thy pain
Emilia shock at O actions
O gull, O dolt as ignorant as dirt
Othello admits certain factor are out of his control
But O vain boast, who can control his fate.
Othello remorse( what he deserves )
Blow me about in winds, roast me in sulphur, wash me in steep down gulfs of liquid fire
Asking for an explanation from Iago
Will you, I pray demand that demi-devil why he has thus ensnared my soul and body ?
He acted out of honour not hatred
For naught do I hate, but all in honour
Long quote
Speak of me as I am, nothing extenuate, nor set down aught in malice
they you must speak of one who loved not wisely but too well
of one not easily jealousy but being wrought perplexed in the extreme
of one whose hand, like the base Judean who threw a Pearl away richer than all his tribe
Last line of the play
Myself will straight abroad and to the state/ this heavy act with heavy heart relate
Talking about how jealousy is created itself
It is a monster begot upon itself, born upon itself
