Dit boekje had maar 55 pagina’s... Ik heb echt goed gekeken, maar ik vind de overige 9000 niet

somehow this was one of shakespears plays that I had not read until now. Such a classic of human emotions the danger of jealousy and how easily people can get caught up in a reality that is invented and not bother to find the truth out for themselves.

It still remains one of my least favorite of Shakespeare's plays. And this time I realised that it is so because of Iago. I just don't believe him, and it annoys me that he becomes the central person instead of Othello who is much better written.

I thought jealousy is scary thing.
