Flaw

David Period #2 10/24/03 Shakespeare FLAWED <Tab/>"O I see that nose of yours, but not that dog I shall throw it to" (Act 4, Scene 2), is the line Othello mutters under his breath after hearing a conversation between Cassio and Iago. But why would Othello say such a horrible remark about one Michael Cassio? Is it because it's the truth or is because we have a man named Iago, who in fact, is …

…Othello had was to trust Iago. And once you put your trust in someone, you're with them all the way; to bad for Othello that all the way meant killing his wife. To whom do you think gets the credit for killing Desdemona? Iago's hate of the Moor. Othello's love for his wife or the gasoline that fueled Othello's jealously. I think to truly know the answer we would have to talk to Shakespeare himself.
