Reading through Othello by Shakespeare and watching the movie "O" that is based off of that play, has been very interesting. Even though it is not a real life story, it really is. It is really scary to me that people can sir up trouble so easily. People can be so evil with their words and lies. That alone really has caused murders and crimes. Not that those crimes are ever excusable, but it almost makes the person that committed the crime a victim as well. Words really do hold power, and cause emotion, whether they are true or not. YIKES!

  1. Hi Lisa: I too have really enjoyed "Othello" and "O." It is all just so tragic, and unnecessary.

    Jealousy is such an evil emotion. I know from experience that it is so hard to fight it, and it makes you feel small for feeling that way. I think it's the most raw human feeling.

  2. I am thinking Iago is one of the the most evil characters in all of Shakespeare. It would take an enormous amount of energy to plot the way he does to ruin people.
