“I see a woman may be made a fool, If she had not a spirit to resist.”

“By my troth, I was seeking for a fool when I found you.Orl: He is drowned in the brook, look but in and you shall see him.Jaq: There I shall see mine own figure.Orl: Which I take to be either a fool or a cipher.”

“She that was ever fair and never proud,Had tongue at will and yet was never loud,Never lack'd gold and yet went never gay,Fled from her wish and yet said 'Now I may,'She that being anger'd, her revenge being nigh,Bade her wrong stay and her displeasure fly,She that in wisdom never was so frailTo change the cod's head for the salmon's tail;She that could think and ne'er disclose her mind,See suitors following and not look behind,She was a wight, if ever such wight were,--DESDEMONA: To do what?IAGO: To suckle fools and chronicle small beer.”

“As full of spirit as the month of May, and as gorgeous as the sun in Midsummer.”

“Look to her, Moor, if thou has eyes to see. She has deceived her father, and may thee.”

“Shall we their fond pageant see?Lord, what fools these mortals be!”

“She's beautiful, and therefore to be wooed; She is a woman, therefore to be won.”
