Quote: " When devils will the blackest sins put on, they do suggest at first with heavenly shows, as I do now" (Iago 2.3 -351-353)
Significance: Once again Iago is fooling everyone he talks to and only wants things to work out well for himself. This recurring theme of "backstabbing" seems to be something that could happen to Iago at the end of the play. What goes around comes around, and everyone that has ever been betrayed by Iago will hopefully realize what he has done all along and make him pay for what he has done to them. Iago is the worse friend anyone could ask for. He even wants to betray Cassio, his supposed buddy, by telling Othello he and Desdemona have something between them when Cassio goes to ask Desdemona for help.
Question: Will Othello really believe what Iago says about Cassio and Desdemona?
Define 2 words:
speak parrot- to talk without making sense of what is being said (2.3 278-279).
perdition- absolute destruction (2.2 3).
